Re: how many holes in one did you have this year?
[ QUOTE ]
I read the article in Golf Digest. I actually got her e-mail and sent her a message about what a fraud she is. I said there was no way she had that many hole in ones nor did she shoot a 61. I am a 4 handicap and have played golf over 20 years. I have seen a total of 4 hole in ones in my life. I have played with PGA golf pros and the lowest round I have seen shot is 64. She actually responded to my e-mail saying that the reporter never talked to the 26 other witnesses and that the course she shot the 61 was incredibly easy that my grandmother could even do it. I actually apologized to her. I don't know the situation and here I went out of my way to attack her. She invited me to play golf next time I am in Palm Springs. [/ QUOTE ] She is really going out of her way to defend herself. Now a registered member of 2+2! |

But whereas she apparently lives in the Palm Springs area, this IP is for the LA suburb of Tarzana, somewhere near Burbank. I checked her blog and the ESPN article and it makes no mention of her spending any time there, sadly. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] |

Re: how many holes in one did you have this year?
Haha. I went out of my way to get her e-mail and attack her. Do I believe she had 16 hole in ones or shot a 61? Eff no. Still, all I read is an article and the media can (and has) slanted information. I shouldn't be jumping to conclusions.
This is probably another Rose Ruiz. Someone desperate for attention and she sure got it! |

There was a similar story 5-6 years ago about a teenage boy who said he did about the same thing. Both are def FOS, what a ridiculous joke.

[/ QUOTE ] As long as you're on her good side, send her a link to this thread and have her register and defend herself, please. This has potential to turn into very funny thread. Also, I'm a little disapointed that no one has created a gimmick account to defend her in an entertaining way. Meh, I guess I'll go back to BBV and OOT. |

Re: how many holes in one did you have this year?
The most jarring thing about this story is that golf is supposed to be a game of honor and honesty, and here we have this woman abusing that and throwing it back in everyone's face. Seriously, I don't know how she shows her face at her home club, they must hate her there knowing what a fraud she obviously is. Argh.

[/ QUOTE ] She has already (obviously) posted in the ESPN discussion board about defending herself. As I said, I personally don't think she had 16 or even 3 hole-in-ones, but I wasn't there for any of the fakes. It seems to be someone who wants attention and she sure got it. |

How such an obvious lie has made this much press, I'll never know. Her non-story should have been rejected before it made it into any publication.

Re: how many holes in one did you have this year?
Probably not pole-worthy, so I'll just let whoever wants to respond do so:
About how many rounds of golf have you played, and how many times has someone hit a shot where nobody saw the finish and the ball ended up in the hole? As a guess, I'll say I've played about 300 rounds of golf, and this has happened to me exactly zero times. |
