Natalie Gulbis is Now Hotter On the Course Than She Is Off After First Win
Natalie Gulbis, a Lake Las Vegas Resort resident who lives on the fairways of Reflection Bay Golf Club, has been one of the best players on the LPGA Tour for several years, and also one of the most determined. She’s played on a Solheim Cup team, finished top 10 on the money list, and come very close to winning a major. But until winning the Evian Masters in France, Gulbis hadn’t tasted the victor’s spoils. And now, because of a recent back injury, she is a champion, and winning just might become a common occurrence.
The PGA Tour Marks Its 25th Year in Vegas with a New Look and Wants You
This year marks the 25th for the PGA Tour’s Las Vegas event, the FRYS.com Open benefiting Shriners Hospital for Children. After more than a decade away from the city, the PGA Tour returned in 1983 for the inaugural playing of the Panasonic Las Vegas Pro Celebrity Classic that was won by Fuzzy Zoeller. When it debuted, the total purse of more than $1 million marked the first time a PGA Tour event had been played for that much money. Golf’s biggest names have won here over the last 25 years including Greg Norman (1986), Paul Azinger (1987), Curtis Strange (1985), Davis Love III (1993) and Jim Furyk (95, 98, 99), and, of course, Tiger Woods (1996). And tournament organizers want you to get involved either as a fan or volunteer for the tournament.
