We will have more on the girls experience in next week’s release.

The finale is drawing closer and Blair has beat out 9 other contestants in hopes of winning the show and the show’s grand prize, $100,000! There are only two episodes left. Tune in next Monday June 22, 2009 at 9PM ET only on the Golf Channel. Not only that but Blair was featured on many online outlets this week (see below).
