The 2007 ANZ Ladies Masters received a further boost today when it was announced that rising star of the USLPGA Tour, Natalie Gulbis, will join the star studded line-up at Royal Pines from February 8th – 11th.
Tournament Chairman, Bob Tuohy, today confirmed that the 23-year-old from Lake Las Vegas in Nevada will join the growing list of world class players either already committed or in the final stages of committing to the event.
“We expect to be able announce further big name signings over the coming weeks,” said Tuohy. “Natalie has often shown an interest in returning to Australia since her first visit here three years ago and this season provided the opportunity for her to do just that. Her presence in what is shaping as one of our strongest fields ever is a great bonus for the event.”
This will be Gulbis’ second visit to Royal Pines. She first played in 2003 but since that time has gone onto become one of the leading players in the USA. She is currently 14th on the 2006 LPGA Tour money list, her best finish of the season to date when runner up to Mi Hyun Kim after a playoff at the Jamie Farr Owens Corning Classic in Ohio.
Not only has Gulbis been successful on the golf course but off the golf course she has created quite a stir with her model like good looks securing her calendar and other photographic and promotional assignments.
