Nothing highlights the buzz of New Jersey tee times better than a grand golf tournament at one of Jersey's very own courses.
The golf spotlight was recently on New Jersey with the 2011 Sybase Match Play Championship which was held from May 19 until May 22. The championship is a professional golf tournament played on the LPGA Tour. It is a relatively new tournament, having only started in 2010. Since then, the tournament has taken place at the Hamilton Farm Golf Club in Gladstone, New Jersey.
At the latest championship, a number of highly ranked players participated including the famed Natalie Gulbis, who has appeared in both her own reality TV show called The Natalie Gulbis Show and Donald Trump's Celebrity Apprentice. In the end, however, the 2011 winner was Suzann Pettersen of Norway, while the runner up was Cristie Kerr. The purse of the Sybase tournament is $1,500,000, with a winner's share of $375,000.
