Chicks dig golf. I’m not even talking about the LPGA. I know, it’s unbelievable. I didn’t believe it at first either. I know a girl who sometimes watches 6 hours of golf on TV in a weekend. It’s crazy. Now is this the making of a perfect woman? Let’s see…
First, she watches for the guys. This isn’t hard to believe since girls think about guys all the time and guys think about girls nonstop. My friend likes Sergio Garcia and Camillo Villegas. No surprise there. But WTF? They’re not just pieces of meat out there?? Ok, so that doesn’t help much because in the back of our minds we’ll know that she’s checking them out. But then again, what does she think when we watch Two and a Half Men, Baywatch, or anything with Jessica Alba?
Second, she doesn’t even play the game. This boggles the mind. It’s one thing to watch a sport that you have some experience in, but to just watch for the sheer enjoyment of it? This one really surprised me, but apparently it’s the truth. She has hit the driving range before at least, but doesn’t play.
My question is, how did all this start? Was it just a Sunday tradition at home or something? It had to come from somewhere. I didn’t watch golf until I started playing, but before that I never really had an inclination to watch. Maybe it’s because she’s just a sports fan? My friend is indeed a sports fan of a very high caliber. This is a plausible explanation and adds something extra to her persona. She is also competitive and doesn’t like to lose, another good thing in my book.
When discussing this with another friend of mine, he said he used to date a girl that only wanted to go out to eat and play golf. He said it was like dating himself, which I guess could be good or bad. When that relationship finally didn’t work out, it was a struggle for him to leave her. I don’t think he left because of the golf.
So is this an essential ingredient in making a perfect woman? You’ll have to investigate that on a case by case basis. In the end, if you find a woman that lets you watch golf at all, enjoy it. If you find one that’ll watch with you, you’re blessed twice over. But if you find a woman like European Tour Player Maria Verchenova, who can teach you all you need to know about golf AND looks like that…who really cares what’s on TV anyway??
