PGA reporter Amanda Balionis photos and bio


I’m not an expert on the work of Amanda Balionis, but that’s only because I’m not one for watching golf on television. Amanda Balionis is the latest and greatest eye candy member of the sports press core. Amanda Balionis has become an internet search engine superstar in recent months.

After the jump, here are some pics of the PGA Tour Anchor and Reporter.

LPGA star Suzann Pettersen photos and bio


pettersen-suzann

LPGA golfer Suzann Pettersen is one of the latest crop to appear in the ESPN the magazine body issue. Appearing naked that is. See it after the jump. Remember you won’t see the naughty bits of Suzann Pettersen though. This is ESPN after all. Which is owned by Disney, and Disney’s philosophy is “family magic.”

Even if the Suzann Pettersen naughty bits were on display, you likely wouldn’t see them here. As this is a SFW site, not a NSFW.

From semi-famous to Masters Champion, the evolution of Adam Scott


evolution of Adam Scott

Believe it or not, there are two relatively famous men named Adam Scott. One is known for being married to Leslie Knope on the American comedy series, Parks and Recreation, and the other is a top-ten golfer who hails from the Land Under.

The actor Adam Scott (Ben Wyatt on Parks and Rec) even had something to say about the matter back in 2009:

“We’re both semi-famous within our little subcultures but neither one of us is a global mainstream behemoth. Overall, I’d say he’s way more famous than I am. I think the main difference between the other Adam Scott and me is that I’m the one who doesn’t give a shit about golf. I have absolutely no interest in the game whatsoever.”

No disrespect to the actor’s lack of golf knowledge, but Adam Scott the golfer just became that “global mainstream behemoth,” with the addition of a Masters Green Jacket to his wardrobe. [Read more...]

Holly Sonders to make golf watchable, well almost


holly-sonders

The Golf Channel’s Holly Sonders is about to bring a lot more eyeballs to the sport of golf. Well, she’s bringing a lot more publicity to the sport anyway. Who is Holly Sonders?  Here’s her biography and photo collection. She’s also the cover girl for next month’s Golf Digest. Which is the fitness issue. And she’s going to be showing off just how fit she herself is.

Holly Sonders can be seen on “Morning Drive” and “School of Golf” on the Golf Channel. She was a four-year member of the Michigan State golf team, and the Lady Spartans won a Big 10 title during her time there. She might the most inspiring MSU figure this side of Tom Izzo. Certainly, these Michigan State people are NOT role models.

Golf Channel’s Holly Sonders: photos and bio


holly sonders

The Golf Channel’s Holly Sonders is rather easy on the eyes, as you can see. And she’s a great golfer. And she has a new eye-catching photo spread in next month’s Golf Digest. Holly Sonders is also an MSU Spartan. Go Green!
Holly Sonders, who can be seen on Morning Drive and School of Golf on the Golf Channel was a four-year member of the Michigan State golf team, and the Lady Spartans won a Big 10 title during her time there.
Holly Sonders may be the most exciting Spartans figure this side of Tom Izzo. And maybe both of them have enough sway among the Michigan State people to get them to stop doing this! DUMB BEHAVIOR!

Elin Nordegren Tiger Woods reunion rumors obviously false


elin-nordegren

Is there a Elin Nordegren Tiger Woods reunion brewing? No. CBS and TMZ were both wrong. With Lindsey Vonn and Tiger Woods both announcing their relationship through social media today. It’s clear that the media read way too much into Tiger Woods and Elin Nordegren being photographed together at a youth sports event recently.

The event (a baseball game, possibly?) probably involved one of their two children. So that’s why Elin Nordegren and Tiger Woods were seen together.

Tiger Woods ex-wife Elin Nordegren was placed back in the media spotlight a couple months ago; very much against her will. Her current (maybe?) boyfriend financier Jamie Dingman had an affair with Woods mistress Rachel Uchitel. And it possibly happened at the same time Uchitel was hooking up with Woods. Even though this happened before her relationship with Dingman, it grosses out Elin Nordegren. Especially since she found this out via the press; not from her man himself.

Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn “officially” a thing now


tiger-woods-and-lindsey-vonn

Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn officially revealed today what we already knew for months. Is this post about Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn a bit junior highish? Or middle schoolish? Absolutely. And that’s the TMZ news world we live. Gossiping like “Mean Girls” passes for news in the current social media age. Both Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn “broke” this “news” on their respective social media.

I’m not linking to it, cuz if you care that much about Tiger Woods and Lindsey Vonn you’ve already seen it. Yes, social media encourages this type of behavior. And who knows, if I may quote disco era soul group Shalamar: “maybe true love can be found, the second time around.”

Both Lindsey Vonn and Tiger Woods are divorced. And hey, Lindsey Vonn needs some sexual healing to convalesce her damaged legs.

And from that vicious bite inflicted by the Baltimore Orioles mascot.

Ian Poulter, the Ryder Cup and the Strange Appeal of PGA Tour Oddballs


 

By Scott McCormick

Scott McCormick is a golf fanatic and golf commentator who begrudgingly came to respect Ian Poulter after his amazing performance at this year’s Ryder Cup.  Scott’s writing appears courtesy of Golf Now Phoenix and Golf Now San Diego.  For more of McCormick’s commentary, see his recent post on the history of golf fashion.

Wearing a traditional V-neck sweater over a white polo shirt, with navy blue trousers that matched his sweater, and accented on top with an unpretentious white visor, Great Britain’s Ian Poulter could have been confused for any other 21st century golfer.
