Natalie Gulbis Hot Photos

Natalie Gulbis, you are Hot! You’ve caught the attention of everyone on the LPGA tour with your powerful drives and accurate irons. Men love your greenish-blue eyes and streaked blonde hair, but it’s your command of that long, stiff shaft that drives them wild.
You are 5’9” worth of sexiness. You broke par at age 10, and you’ve been breaking hearts since the glorious day your father allowed you to wear that mini-skirt for a round of 18. In high school, you crushed your male competitors, shaming them in defeat and forcing them to spend long hours stroking — err, working on their strokes.
You graduated high school in only three years, and went pro after a year of college. When you weren’t playing golf, you were working on your flexibility with a local gymnastics club. Apparently you’re a top-level gymnast. If this golf thing doesn’t work out, you could make a lot of money by letting people watch you ride the pommel horse.
Your swimsuit calendar has sold out four times over, and you’ve been linked to super-studs Derek Jeter and Ben Roethlisberger. Recent reports claim that Big Ben has won your heart, but after watching the Steelers’ two playoff games, we’re sure you’ve noticed that he’s prone to making premature decisions in pressure situations, if you know what we mean.
The fact that you love the music of Creed and Celine Dion — or that you claim to eat McDonald’s almost every day — has left us undeterred. Natalie Gulbis, you are the elegant albatross women’s golf has been waiting for.
May your fairways be green and your roughs not too… rough? Either way, you are Hot!

Natalie Gulbis Profile

Natalie Anne Gulbis (born January 7, 1983) is an American professional golfer who plays on the U.S.-based LPGA Tour. She started finding interest in the game at the early age of 4. By the time she reached 7 years old, she had won her first tournament. In three years, at age 10, she was breaking par. She played in her first LPGA tour event as an amateur at the age of 14 (handicap of 2). She turned professional at the age of 18 after playing for one season on the women’s golf team at the University of Arizona.

Gulbis did not win a tournament in the first five years of her professional career but still finished sixth on the LPGA money list in 2005 with over $1 million (U.S.) in earnings and played on the winning United States Solheim Cup team. She placed in the top 10 in four consecutive major championships from the 2005 LPGA Championship to the 2006 Kraft Nabisco Championship.

Gulbis’ first professional win came in 2007 at the Evian Masters where she defeated Jeong Jang in a playoff to claim the winner’s share of the $3,000,000 purse.

She is considered to be a sex symbol in the LPGA. She released a 2005 calendar, just before the 2004 U.S. Women’s Open, which featured her not only playing golf, but also in striking poses in swimwear.
