Hi Gals, If you saw the last post then you will know that I was in Florida and attended the first three days of the Arnold Palmer Invitational presented by MasterCard... if you haven't seen that post then go check it out before you read this one. Wednesday was so unbelievable and such a dream come true! We got to the course somewhat early and my dad grabbed a pairing-guide and we made a quick plan about what we wanted to do for the rest of the morning. We had a great morning and got to see a lot of good players and get some good signatures! After we saw a few people come in from the pro-am my dad started to look at the groups and the amateurs going out in the afternoon because sometimes there are celebrities.... he showed me the amateurs playing with Marc Leishman at 11:50 and he jokes that you should have seen my face when I saw the names. Annika Sorenstam! I couldn't believe it! Annika retired in 2008 when I was 2 and so I never had a chance to even watch her play on TV ...

My first two days at the Arnold Palmer Invitational!

Hi Gals, I went to the first three days of the Arnold Palmer Invitational (API) and had an amazing time! We spent Monday hanging out around the putting green and driving range or between one and ten watching the pro-am. My sister and I got a lot of signatures and then we decided to stay for the Jr. Clinic which started at 4:30 so we hung around and watched some people practice until then. This year's Jr. Clinic's pro was Rob Oppenheim from MA! We got a lot of cool tips and I look forward to attending again next year. On Tuesday we spent the morning just getting signatures and watching golf. Then we went over and sat down for some lunch... after we got food my dad went over and checked the short game area and came back to the table and said: "Girls, you are going to want to get your stuff together...". I asked why and he replied with "Annika is over there!" That was all it took before I was halfway over there. She was filming a commercial or taking pictures...
