I'll be doing a regular "Thursday Update" from now on. It's just a quick update on what's going on behind the scenes at Golf Girl Media.

This has been SUCH a crazy week!

As an official member of the Golf Girl Media team, I’ve been doing everything sending off various emails to various people.... for various reasons, and working on ways to make Golf Girl Media, not only a company but... um,

Of Princes & Ballgowns & Beautiful Ryder Cup Birdies


Team USA
Team Europe
They wore plumage of fine silk and frothy taffeta... in midnight black, icy white or one of several jewel tones.  
The inelegant acronym that's so often used to describe them was forgotten, at least for this one night. 
There were no WAGs at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium for the Ryder Cup's official function opening on Tuesday evening.  The wives and girlfriends were allowed,

Only Two Things - The Professional Athlete's Partner




Ryder Cup week has been underway for a couple days now and we're quickly getting to know an international cast of WAGs.

We saw them as they first set foot on Welsh soil... disembarking with their partners from the team's aircraft... and later, sitting primly in rows for a fashion show.  A classically posed group shot is already making the rounds.

There have already been numerous stories of

I Tweet U Not - The Ryder Cup Twitter Rule

by Jordan FarrWhether or not you think the newly-enacted Ryder Cup “no tweet law" belongs in the “Stupid Law Book” ... you should know it’s has been implemented for a reason. What that reason is, I don’t think anyone quite knows for sure. However, what is clear is that some golfers believe it’s down right silly, unfair and quite... um... ignorable.The European team’s ever-so-social Ian Poulter

Molinari - Rocca - Colmar : The Elegance of Italian Golf



Earlier this year Edoardo Molinari said that Colmar was "...a brand in sync with his personality and tastes".

He's a global ambassador for the iconic Italian apparel company and is often one of the best dressed golfers on the course. ~ For 80 years,  the company has been well known for its golf apparel...  ski jackets and snow suits as well.

Only Two Things - The World of a Beverage Cart Girl

On a warm summer day, when you've got a couple of hours of golf ahead of you, there's no sight more welcome than the beverage cart. As it pulls up to the tee... with an attractive young lady at the wheel... golfers tend to smile. The prospect of an icy brew and a bit of lighthearted banter is always inspiring.But what's life really like for these peppy purveyors of on-course refreshment... and

Swashbuckling Laura Davies & World Golf Hall of Fame

Like Arnold Palmer, Seve Ballesteros and Chi Chi Rodriguez, Laura Davies has a style that some have described as swashbuckling. Flamboyant, adventurous, swaggering ...at risk of sounding sexist, it's not a style one normally associates with ladies. But this lady is is a golf icon and without a doubt, the most accomplished English female golfer of modern times. That she's got a passion for

A Busy Fall Week for LPGA Star Cristie Kerr

As green leaves turn gold and days grow shorter, summer is a fast-fading memory in and around New York City. However despite the tinge of regret that inevitably marks the season's end, a New York fall is always something to look forward to, as it inevitably brings with it a delightful, multi-hued foliage display and a new series of cultural events, festivals and museum shows. ~ September can be a

Only Two Things - The Female Sports Scribe's Plight

It's the water cooler topic du jour" ...and a great subject for today's show. It's being called the "Ines Sainz situation" by some, Ines Sainz being the little known NFL sideline reporter who's found herself at the center of a Media Maelstrom after an incident on Saturday involving several NY Jets, a pair of skin-tight jeans, and some stereotypically boorish behavior. The basic situation not new:

These Days No One's as Awesome as Rafael Nadal

For now, I think it's safe to say that Rafa is untouchable in his awesomeness. For one thing he just won his first U.S. Open and at the same time completed a career Grand Slam. And many feel that at only 24, he's on his way to becoming the best of all time. As I wrote just a few days ago he also plays golf... plays it well too. He played with Fred Couples a few months ago and the easy-going

Ryder Cup Aesthetic - Lisa Pavin vs Tommy Hilfiger

Normally we'd be expecting to see red at the upcoming Ryder Cup. Along with white and blue, the patriotic color pallet has always been considered de rigueur, with sometimes dubious results. According to what's been revealed thus far however, the 2010 team will be sporting a variety of looks... largely retro-inspired... and they'll be rather light on the red, white and blue.

The Links at Terranea - An Extraordinary 9-hole par 3

When talk turns to "growing the game of golf" ...as it frequently does these days in golf media circles... one of the most often suggested initiatives is the development... and promotion... of shorter layouts. Taking into consideration that cost, time and difficulty are the three most frequently cited factors in the decision to give up the game... or play fewer rounds... you'd think there'd be a

Only Two Things - Of Tiger Woods & Ryder Cup Wives

Choosing this week's topic was a classic no-brainer. Yesterday morning's announcement that the world's number one golfer would be on Captain Corey Pavin's US Ryder Cup team, launched into high gear the feigned indignation... not to mention the myriad jokes about resentful wives... that have been circulating since early summer. For weeks now in golf forums and on message boards, there's been

MAJ, Molinari, Manassero - The Sexiest Golf Video Ever

A Slow Week at the Omega European Masters is a four minute video brought to you by the European Tour... and as you will see, it takes SFW golf porn to a whole new level. I fully realize that "sexy"... more than most things in life... is subjective. However, in this particular case I'm quite sure most will agree with my assessment. After all, the leading man in this elegant court métrage is the
