Why only 3 women at that competition?

I was thinking the same thing. especially with the bigger pay out then the pro tour

9 were invited. We made the decision to go on the Tues before. Laura Lohrman was not one of the original 9 but asked if she could compete as she was going to be in Michigan anyway. So, theoretically it could have been just Dallas.

Sounds like they need to stop with the "invite" policy and start letting all women show up. If they don't it could be a blow to the credibility of the event.

I was told it was because they had so many different events going on that time was limited.Power boating, ski jumping, etc,etc. Kinda backfired though. Nearly ended up with nobody.
