A while back Natalie Gulbis revealed that she'd love to be on Dancing With the Stars.
Well that hasn't happened yet, but Jan Stephenson, another "bubbly" blonde golfer, will be joining the line-up for Series 11 of Australia's DWTS.
Jan Stephenson won three majors and 16 events in her extraordinary LPGA career but is often referenced as "the golfer who posed naked in a bath tub of golf balls".
So be it. The awesome Aussie was never one let such things bother her, in fact she was always quite pragmatic about promoting sex appeal to encourage interest in women's golf.
Jan will be partnered with Mark Hodge in the new season of the international hit TV show. The cast will also include a cheeky celebrity chef a couple of high profile celebrity models, a cricket superstar and a world champion surfer.
Jan now plays on The Legends Tour and holds the top spot in Legends Tour career money. She's been named for the sixth time to the Handa Cup World Team to be played May 19 – 22, 2011 in Rye, NH. I'm looking forward to heading up to the historical Wentworth-by-the-Sea golf course to attend the event and meet Jan... before she trades her golf shoes for dancing shoes.
I remember Jan Stephenson from the 80s. She really was a PR pioneer for the LPGA Tour.
ReplyDeleteI'm in Tucson this weekend for the Ledgends Invitational. Fun stuff! I hope Jan does well on DWTS.
ReplyDeleteThose are some nice Dancing legs! ;)
