Press Release June 22, 2009

Play Golf Designs Press Release for week of June 22, 2009

With what seems like it has been deemed US Open “month” in the golf world, the girls of Play Golf Designs have been hard at work. From traveling to the rain drenched NE for the US Open at Bethpage Black, to the Midwest of Mason, OH, our PGD girls have been representing both on and off the golf course.

PGD girls, AKA “Spice Girls”, president and CEO, Nisha Sadekar, Big Break Prince Edward’s Island stars Kim Kouwabunpat and Blair O’Neal, Ashley Gomes of Big Break 6 & 7 and the upcoming Duramed Futures Tour golf sensation Seema Sadekar, were all in attendance at this year’s US Open in NY. The five girls were hosting First American Title to a week of golf and various activities available at the US Open. The picture is of Kim and Blair on the 18th fairway at the US Open, in our cute PGD golf uniforms. Thanks to GolfWrx for the photo. The US Open was a huge success for the girls (and their rain drenched golf shoes) and PGD buzz is spreading more and more doing these corporate outings and events. To read more about the girl’s experience at the US Open please visit Kim’s Blog on about.com: http://golf.about.com/b/2009/06/18/kim-kouwabunpats-big-break-pei-diary-episode-9.htm


Over in the Midwest the Duramed Futures tour was having their Duramed Championship in Mason, OH. Of course there were many PGD girls in the field! Big Break PEI contestant, Caroline Larsson, was top PGD finisher in the Duramed Championship she finished T28 (+2). Big Break V Champion Ashley Prange finished T44 (+5) and Nicole Hage continued her good golf by finishing T52 (+6). Other scores include: Hwanhee Lee T52 (+6) and Road Trip Myrtle Beach star, Perry Swenson T65 (+9).

PGD girl and Big Break Ka’anapali star, Tina Miller played in the CVS Pepsi Pro-AM at Rhode Island Country Club on Sunday June 21. It was a great opportunity for Tina to showcase her personality and golf game on an exclusive stage. Pictured with Tina is Champions Tour player Dana Quigley, one of the many pros in attendance at this prestigious charity event.

In some TV entertainment news, PGD girl Blair O’Neal, has officially made it to the FINAL episode of Big Break PEI! Blair has ousted 10 other contestants to make it this far and the final episode airs on Monday June 29th at 9PM EST. Tune into the Golf Channel to witness the finale and to cheer on PGD girl Blair!
