Big Break Babes?

[allin]

Does it seem as if the gc is putting more emphasis on looks than golfing talent in their big break choices? It seems like golf is lost and it is becoming more and more like survivor,

When have they ever had golfers worthy of the big breaks they were playing for?

I honestly don't think I'll be watching this season. The Donald does not good television make for me.

an English Amateur Champ not good enough for you?

infact i think that one year there were a couple of very good players. tommy gainey, regardless of what u think of his form has become a consistent winner on the mini tours (and against players like Tim Simpson) infact hes the leading money winner on the Tarheel Tour this year. Go two gloves!

Oh yes, Tommy Two Gloves!

The show is fun to watch because the golfers are regular people like you and I. That's what makes it so interesting.

I do agree that looks do play a pretty big part. Danielle Aimee brought ratings fo sho, but I'm not sure if it was her looks, fake boobs, or drama. It might have been a little of all three actually.

I'm interested to see how things play out this season. I don't care for Donald Trump, but his course is phenomenal! That's enough to make me watch a few episodes at least.

The ratings will probably be pretty decent too with The Donald being in the mix.

yeah deff.

say what you want about the Donald, but his desire to make some serious contributions to the world of golf (by means of building some stellar courses)is pretty commendable.

and remember, no matter how bad your hair piece, you can still be a member at Winged Foot lol

BTW: Here are some of Tommys recent scores. While I really dont think his form would stand up under the constant pressure of PGA level events, he certainly can "go low":

Patriots Point Open 69-68-70--207 1 $11,000.00
Bermuda Run Open 70-68-69--207 4 $3,400.00
Sapona Classic 64-68-69--201 2 $7,000.00
River Run Classic 68-65-63--196 1 $12,000.00
Charlotte National Open 74-69--143 CUT $0.00
Southern Open 68-66-71--205 T4 $3,583.33
Salisbury Classic 62-70-68--200 T3 $3,950.00

I would argue only the first season. While I thought Rick Smith was a cheeseball, that Treetops course was smokin. Plus I really liked the Justin guy who eventually won... I was actually rooting for him.

I think it is a nice trend to see the more "athletic" looking women myself. Looks obviously don't make a good golfer, and I don't think that you have to be a great athlete to be a great golfer, there are certainly lots of men and women who are great golfers but are not good athletes at all...

It is nice to watch someone who is in better shape pysically (imho) and I think it sets a better example for the younger players...

I will be cheering for Annie Mallory, her home town is less than an hour from where I live...

It might be sad to say, but good looking girls do wonders for the sports they play. Look at how popular the LPGA is now with the additions of Michelle Wie, Paula Creamer, and Natalie Gulbis just to name a few.

The same thing happened with Tennis. Anna Kournikova (sp?) was a very average tennis player by professional standards. but people would rather watch her warm up than watch whoever was winning the tournament that weekend.

I for one am happy that there are some good looking girls, in hot outfits strutting the courses these days. Its even better when they are great players as well!
