Julieta Granada blogs
Julieta Granada, who won last year’s ADT championship and set an LPGA record for a $1 million first place check, is currently T2 (at -1) at the weather-delayed U.S. Open at Pine Needles. But did you know she is also a blogger? Already this season, she’s had two top 10 finishes and earned over $250K. [...]

U.S. Open & Golf courses for women
First, I have to get this out – It should be called the U.S. Open. Period. They don’t call the one the men play the U.S. Men’s Open. Golf is golf no matter which gender plays. That being said, I am a subscriber to the magazine Golf For Women. I mean come on, I have [...]

Sam Alexis Woods’ practice regimen
Born with a 4 handicap, she could probably hold off on starting her practice routine, but here is Sam Alexis Woods diligently working on her grip in her sleep. What you can’t see in a still picture is the flexing of the hands that follows the rhythmic and adorable gurgling baby sounds. Also seen in [...]

Ankle fashion
I saw this picture on Eagle Par Birdie in a post about The Copa de las Americas and had to share it here. I see I’m not the only one with prominent ankle tan lines. Yes, yes, it is a badge of honor. Next post.

While its success and readership dwarfs that of this humble blog, I only discovered it recently, thanks to the addition of contributor William K.

Apparently there’s some big golf tournament going on
Sports writers and golf bloggers are covering the U.S. Open and Oakmont Country Club with the same fervor of CNN covering Paris Hilton. No detail left unreported.

Another one bites the dust
Well, here is a case of a golf blogger popping up and then quickly disappearing. Usually, I like to wait until a new golf blogger has been around for a little while and looks like they’re going to stay and keep posting before I link to them. In the case of Elizabeth Jones, I guess [...]

Gotta weigh in on Wie
Exactly what does it mean to be non-competitive? Well, the LPGA has put a number on it: 88. If a non-member shoots an 88 or higher in an LPGA tournament, she is banned from LPGA events for the rest of the year. Golf writers have been typing until they’re blue in the hands about Michelle [...]
