It’s Friday, September 26th and we’re giving away an OGIO stand golf bag - today on Golf Now’s Trivia Contest.
Hey there, Keri Murphy back with our final trivia question of the week here on GolfNow.com and our featured course for today is the Legacy Golf Resort in Phoenix – another course in our GolfNow network where you can save when you book online with us here at www.GolfNow.com.
Okay, the Omega Mission Hills World Cup is still about two months away but, let’s start getting you ready for this international event with our trivia question for today, which is:
Which country has never hosted golf’s World Cup? Is it:
A. Indonesia
B. Greece
C. Sweden or
D. Portugal
Just mark your answer on the entry form at GolfNow.com and on Monday’s show, we’ll tell you which country has never hosted the World Cup and we’ll see if your answer was correct. Now, let’s find out the answer to our question from yesterday’s show, which was:
Who was the first golfer after Francis Ouimet to win in his major championship debut?
Although Ben Curtis is well-known these days for wearing NFL colors during tournaments, he certainly wasn’t a household name when he played in his very first major at the 2003 British Open. In fact, even a lot of the American players didn’t know who he was. But, maybe being an unknown helped take the pressure off of him and he shot a 69 in the final round for a final score of 1-under-par 283, which was enough to make him the first golfer since Francis Ouimet to win their major championship debut and moved him from 396th in the world, to 35th place on the World Golf Rankings.
So, if you answered D - then you were right and you’ve added one more entry into our computer for our daily drawings where you can win great golf prizes and today we’re giving away an OGIO Grom stand golf bag. Okay, computer, show me today’s winner:
And our winner today is Rocky Garcia of Del Rio, Texas. Congratulations, Rocky, you’ve just won this OGIO Golf bag and, in order to claim this prize, all you have to do now is send me an e-mail to me at Keri@golfnow.com within the next 30 days.
Okay, that wraps this week here on GolfNow’s trivia contest. Thanks so much to everyone who played this week and congratulations to all of our winners plus a big thanks to girls golf for my wardrobe.
