LPGA Tour golfer Natalie Gulbis is no stranger to TV cameras. Aside from televised golf tournaments, she's appeared on the 2009 season of Celebrity Apprentice, played herself in a 2010 episode of CSI and starred in her own reality show on the Golf Channel. Now she's pairing up with Northeast Ohio PGA pro Jimmy Hanlin on his 18 Holes show, premiering this month on Fox Sports outlets across the country, including Fox Sports Ohio.
But co-hosting the golf course-hopping tip show doesn't mean Gulbis — who's won $5 million in her 16-year career — is taking a career mulligan anytime soon. "I practice [golf] for six hours and train for an hour every day," says the 33-year-old from her Las Vegas home. "I still want to win tournaments." Gulbis tells us about the new gig, swimsuits and more.
