OK, so I realize that nary a handful will even read this but I have to write it anyway. Maybe I missed something and someone will point it out to me.
So, the snub is she was not invited to the press tent. She shot 65, one shot out of the lead, and they didn't even bring her to the press tent
She finished early enough so this is a conscious snub IMO.
Is this because she played golf with Rothlisberger recently, a friend, and former date interest?
Is that what this is fucking about?
I don't get it. Maybe she just left and was not available. Not! Gulbis is the Taylor Swift of fan interaction so the odds of her leaving early are about nil and none?

I wouldn't read anything into it. No Sorenstam, no Ochoa, and Gulbis has won a Major. She will be promoted soon enough.
This week's story seems to be about Paula Creamer and Alexis Thompson.

Could it be that she had something with a sponsor?

Well, normally the interview que is by score and standing, so they cued, the leader 64, Elosigui 66(tied with Gulbis), Thompson(the 15 year old ,71), Creamer 67, and a Monday qualifier who shot 67.
The only consolation is they didn't interview Wie which it's really annoying that they interview her every time no matter what she shoots.
The bottom line is if you don't get into the press room you don't get the ink because they take the quotes from the interview to write the stories.
As it turns out, today Gulbis layed an egg, so she will be happy if nobody knows how bad she played today after playing so well yesterday.
The reason I think they should try to stick to score is these players have sponsors, so ink is always good. |
