Win a Callaway Golf Prize Package today on GolfNow’s Trivia Contest

Tuesday, May 20th, 2008

Hi everyone!

Wow. Okay, we certainly don’t enjoy making mistakes and yesterday may have set the record on comments. Yes, apparently Donald Trump spent significantly more - big surprise - on his course in California than was spent at Liberty National in New Jersey. However, in our initial research, Liberty National’s name came up so much more often than Trump National’s did for most expensive golf course and, at one point, we did find a source that basically suggested that Trump inflated his figures significantly, much as Jeff suggested in his comment: “I believe GN got this one right. The only one who says Trump spent more is Trump.” But, obviously there is more than enough documentation to prove our answer as being incorrect so we will gladly award correct answers to anyone who answered either B or D.

Now, on to yesterday’s question, which asked you to pick the player on our list who had not won a PGA Tour event before their 23rd birthday. 76% of the answers we received had the correct answer so we’ll tell you who it was on today’s show and see if your answer earned you another entry into our daily drawings.

Our winner on yesterday’s show was Neil Johnson of Fort Collins, Colorado and, we heard from Neil by e-mail first thing yesterday morning so we’ll be sending out his new Titleist golf bag right away.

Our question on today’s show looks back on Annika Sorenstam’s early career as we count down the days to her retirement from golf at the end of this season. Okay, have a great Tuesday! - Keri

Hi, everyone and happy Friday!

The LPGA Sybase Classic was the subject of our trivia question on yesterday’s show and we wanted to know which country outside of the United States had the first winner in that tournament. 73% of the answers we received had the correct answer so we’ll tell you all about it on today’s show and see if your answer earned you another entry into our daily drawings.

Our winner on yesterday’s show was Zoltan Almasi of Buffalo, New York and, we heard from Zoltan by e-mail so we’ll be sending out his new TaylorMade travel cover right away.

Today’s question is fun and has to do with the most expensive golf course ever built. Okay, have a great weekend! - Keri

Hi, everyone and happy Thursday!

Our trivia question on yesterday’s show had an error in it when we referred to the fact that only one year had been shortened to three rounds because of rain. Apparently, we meant to say the first year that it was shortened and so, even though Phil Mickelson wasn’t listed and there was only one answer that was technically correct, we want to be fair because we did make the mistake. So, we’ll credit everyone who played with a correct answer to make it right.

Our winner on yesterday’s show was Jack Thomas of
Terra Ceia, Florida
and, when we heard from Jack, he was very excited to be a winner and his prize was a NIKE Golf grab bag.

Our question for today is on the LPGA Sybase Classic, which starts up today, as well, so good luck with that one and have a great day - just one more day until the weekend! - Keri

Hi, everyone!

Okay, first of all, I want to welcome my new clothing sponsor - girls golf - to the show. I picked up one of their tops recently during a project that you’ll be hearing a little bit more about in the near future, and I really liked it, so we got in touch with them and from now on you’ll be seeing me exclusively in girls golf attire. Ladies, you should definitely check them out and you can click on their ad on our home page to find out more - or just click this link: www.girls-golf.com.

Our trivia question on yesterday’s show had to do with the most expensive golf clubs you can buy and which country makes them. Maybe a lot of you already own a set of these clubs because 82% of the entries we received had the correct answer so, on today’s show, we’ll tell you where you can find these clubs and you can find out if you earned another entry into our daily drawings.

Yesterday was also Big Prize Tuesday and our winner was David Lamkin of Scottsdale, Arizona and our big prize was a Sun Mountain golf cart plus a Sun Mountain cart golf bag. So, now all David has to do to claim his prize is to contact us by sending an e-mail to me at keri@golfnow.com within the next 30 days and he’ll receive these great Sun Mountain prizes.

Our question for today is going to test your knowledge on the AT&T Classic, which starts up tomorrow, so good luck and have a great day! - Keri

Hi, everyone!

Today is our Big Prize day for this week and our question on yesterday’s show had to do with a golfer whose mother helped introduce him to golf, which ultimately led to his induction into the World Golf Hall of Fame, among many other accomplishments. 77% of the answers we received were correct, so today, we’ll tell you who it was and you can find out if you earned another entry into our daily drawings.

The winner in yesterday’s drawing was Sandy Umber of Springdale, Arkansas and our prize was a Bob Burns Roll-In putter. We didn’t have to wait very long before we heard from Sandy and, so, that new putter will be on its way to him soon.

Our question for today is about the country that manufactures the most expensive golf clubs in the world so have fun with that one one and have a great Tuesday! - Keri

Hi, everyone and happy Monday!

It’s time to kick off another week of golf trivia and prizes on GolfNow’s Trivia Contest. Our question on last Friday’s show was fun and had to do with a golfer that sprained his thumb in a pillowfight at one time. Just 60% of the answers we received chose the right answer (and since I just typed “his” thumb - that will eliminate one of the golfers we listed), so be sure to watch today to see if your answer was correct.

Our winner on Friday’s show was Glen Hatakeyama of Berkeley, California and Glen was so happy that he won that he sent me three e-mails to claim his prize, a NIKE IC putter! So, Glen, be on the lookout for your new putter soon and, if you’re one of our winners, then be sure to send an e-mail to me at keri@golfnow.com within 30 days to claim your prize!

Since yesterday was Mother’s Day, our question on today’s show has to do with a golfer who made it into the World Golf Hall of Fame who can thank his Mom for getting him started in golf. So, good luck with that one and have a great day! - Keri
