	Star - South Africa already a cup winner
		Attempts have been made in the past to stage a World Cup by, on the one hand, the LPGA Tour in America, and LET on the other.
		Of course, if South Africa were to win, Laurette Maritz would receive $100 000, but her partner, 15-year-old Acer SA Open champion Ashleigh Simon, would not be permitted to take home any cash - not a single cent - as she is still an amateur.
		One solution they might implement if SA win is to give a third to the SA Ladies Golf Union, a third to the girls golf programme here, and a third to development.
