LPGA Pro Natalie Gulbis has a blog!

Well, it turns out LPGA Tour pro Natalie Gulbis has her own blog where she writes as often as she can.

She hasn’t really won any big tournaments lately but since I am a fan, I hope she does soon.

Check out here latest blog posts here.

One thing I notice though was that Natalie must have some good webmasters.  (Take a look at Tiger’s website, it’s all in flash and so SEO-not-friendly.  Whoever did Tiger Wood’s website must be one of the worst webmasters ever.  Even I could do it much much better)

Bob Heintz's Wishes May Come True This Weekend!

You’ve probably never heard of Bob Heintz or the fact that Heinz ketchup is actually spelled without the t.

The fact is that Bob Heintz has been trying to gain fans so he can enjoy his round more.

Of course, you need to score great scores week-in and week-out on the PGA Tour to accomplish that.

Today, Bob Heintz did just that, attracting about 50 fans to follow his partner who is a local amateur.

Of course, if Bob Heintz keeps shooting 63s for the rest of the weekend, it will be possible that one of Bob’s wishes may come true.

Quoting from interview today:

“I said, ‘I imagine y’all are here to watch Drew, right?’” Heintz said. “They kind of laughed and felt bad that they weren’t there to watch me. I relayed to them that one of my career goals was to get where I’m good enough where someone might actually go to a golf course, pick up a pairing sheet and say, ‘I’ll follow Bob Heintz’s group today.’

“That’s kind of a vague career goal, but they started to tease me about that as the day went on — ‘I guess I’ll follow you now.’ I’d rather have attention than, you know, have nobody know who I was.”

Yes, the hardest fact of life on the PGA Tour is not that everyone who qualified makes at least $100K/year.  But the fact that if you don’t finish near the top, no one will ever notice you.

How cruel is that if you were a PGA Tour member most of your life, only to have no one notice you when you retire?

Of course, those spotlights are reserved for players like Tiger Woods but still, professional golf is a mirror-image of our capitalist society.  In order for you to be happy at what you do, you need to be near the top whether that’s golf or business.

Now, I really want this Bob Heintz guy to win this weekend.  Before today, I didn’t even know he’s a PGA Tour player!

Even though Tiger Woods may not be playing in the PGA Championships this year due to his knee injury, he is clearly showing everyone the secret to winning a PGA Championship.

It’s so obvious that we cannot see it but the black nike hat and the red nike shirt are both part of Tiger believe in religiously.

For this year’s champion, let’s hope it’s someone who has been winning consistently so far as I have highhopes for some tour pros.

Here’s all the important internet links you will need this weekend starting tomorrow for the 2008 PGA Championship coverage:

After what seems like an infinite run of winning-droughts, Vijay Singh has pulled another win out of his pockets in style at the World Golf Championships with top 25 players in the world all competing agianst him.  While Tiger was not there, Vijay seems to have took care of business.(as usual)

The former Master winner will be back on the winning-train officially.  We should expect him to win couple more majors in the next few years.

With the World Golf Championship Bridgestone Invitational coming up this week, it will be exciting to watch as the top players in the world battle it out.  Although Tiger Woods won’t be there, we will get to see some action by the youngster like Chev Reavie, Anthony Kim, and of course older folks like Kenny Perry.

Clearly, there’s a lot more room for others to win that there’s no more Tiger Woods at least until some time next year.

With Tiger taking majority of wins on the PGA Tour during a typical PGA Tour year, this year’s going to be a great chance for anyone else to take advantage and finish at the top on Sunday.
