My best friend Scott invited me to go and watch my first LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) Tournament today. The Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic is held in Toledo, Ohio. The tournament host is Jamie Farr from M.A.S.H (Klinger) fame.
Going to golf tournaments is a great time because you are able to get so close to the players. I've been to men's tournaments and I'll admit the women's tournament was a lot of fun. Less people, lower costs and the players are very approachable. We got a lot free gifts too just for showing up. We got a chance to talk with and take photographs (Scott) with the players. Scott is a big fan of several female golfers so he was in heaven. Most of the women playing will embarass a lot of men on the golf course. It was funny to see the "male groupies" following several players and begging for authographs. Here are some photos and comments.
Kraft Nabisco Champion Morgan Pressel
Scott and LPGA Hall of Famer Se Ri Pak. She scored a 63 (8 under par on the first day)
Calendar Girl Natalie Gulbis. There were a TON of men asking her to sign her calendar and photographs
Scott with Jin Young Pak. She was the early leader after scoring a 67 (4 under par)
Brittany Lincicome signing an autograph for a little boy. She and Natalie Gulbis were laughing and telling jokes all day.
