Sorenson Champion
Challenge
Last week, I had the
pleasure of playing in the two-day event, Sorenson Champions Challenge in Salt Lake City, Utah. My partner for the team scramble events
was Dave Stockton Jr. I was invited to play with Stockton Jr., because his
father Dave Stockton, last year's Sorenson Champion, just had rotator cuff surgery.
They needed
a replacement, and I was honored to be of help.Johnny Miller hosted the
event that consisted of a Pro-Am on Monday and a two-man scramble on Tuesday. I
had two fun groups for the Pro-Am and was able to win a Bushnell laser when I
hit it inside 10-feet on the par 39th.
Monday night, the
entertainment at the tournament was incredible. Gary Mule Deer and Vince Gill
went on stage together and did a marvelous job telling jokes and singing songs!
Vince Gill was amazing, and he has an unbelievable voice! Vince Gill cracked a
joke about his soft voice saying, "I know I sound like a woman, but I live in a
large house because my voice sounds like a woman!
It was freezing on Tuesday,
and Stockton Jr. and I had a rough start. We played with Mike Weir and Dean
Wilson. The two of them birdied the first few holes. We started to hit it close,
but the putts would not drop! It was frustrating! However, we still had a blast
at the fun event. Together Stockton Junior and I shot -7 to finish
7th.
I feel the crowd was extra
supportive of our team, because I was the only female player on the field. It
made me happy to represent female golfers. I also received a lot of compliments
on my GoDaddy.com golf bag. I am so glad everyone likes it as much as I
do!
I returned back to Los
Angeles on
Wednesday to be greeted by the rain. It was not my first choice of weather
having just left the freezing cold in Utah. Luckily by Thursday afternoon's golf
training it was 80-degrees and perfect again in
LA.
Fortunately, I had
scheduled a weekend of relaxation. I left to Hawaii on Friday for some downtime, great workouts
and lots of golf practice! I try to fit golfing into my schedule as much as
possible, especially now since I have a week left to prepare for the up coming
events in Asia!
