And why, exactly, is this sort of silliness even newsworthy (besides the fact that I'm writing about it, of course)??
While various sporting teams have taken to shedding their gear in calendars to raise money, Norway's leading female golfer Suzann "Tutta" Pettersen has made the decision on her own. Pettersen, 23, did not say why she shed all for women's lifestyle magazine HENNE, golf.no reports.
Pettersen, a professional since 1999 and French Open winner, chose to be depicted discreetly naked on a green rug sprinkled with golf balls.
Pettersen told HENNE that she is extremely competitive, loves all sport, and dreams of winning the US tour and beating Annika Sörenstam.
And her turn-offs are dishonest people, rap music, and double bogeys....
