Natalie Gulbis cover story in Golf for Women
Golf for Women features Natalie Gulbis–finally!–on its cover this month. You can read the entire article titled Blond Ambition here. Here’s a flavor:
“Among women athletes, Gulbis is not alone in flaunting it. Formula One driver Danica Patrick, the only woman ever to lead the Indianapolis 500, has also appeared in FHM, topless under a black leather jacket. Tennis superstar Maria Sharapova has a swimsuit calendar as well, not to mention the ubiquitous Canon commercial where she’s followed by a flock of tennis balls. These women are rare creatures: photogenic, personable, athletically brilliant–poster girls for the irrefutable fact that sex sells everything from watches to cameras to golf clubs. Like Sharapova, Gulbis is sponsored by Canon, one of the high-profile sponsors she’s taken on since January 2006, when she signed with Octagon, a powerful sports and entertainment agency with deep ties to corporate America. She has endorsement deals with 14 companies, including Taylormade-AdidasGolf; Mastercard; 24 Hour Fitness; Anheuser-Busch; RSM McGladrey, an accounting firm; EA Sports, the video game company; and SemGroup LP, an energy transportation and storage business. The Wall Street Journal estimates her total 2006 earnings at around $2 to $3 million.”
