Natalie Gulbis keen to continue Evian Masters form
American Natalie Gulbis, who finished tied for the fourth position in the Evian Masters 2012, is ready to prove her worth on the LPGA (Ladies Professional Golf Association) Tour when she comes face-to-face
against rivals at the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic 2012 this week.
The LPGA tournament is going to start from August 9-12, at Highland Meadows Golf Club, Ohio, and will see participation most of the prominent players on the Tour.
Gulbis, who gained heaps of confidence at the Evian Masters 2012, will likely put up a tough fight. Her first LPGA victory was recorded in the Evian Masters, as the American star outperformed her rivals in
the 2007 edition of the tournament.
Analysts said that although Gulbis has not been able to win many titles, her fans are going to pin their hopes on her when she tees off this Thursday. There are plenty of other contenders who are among the
favourites to win the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic, but the LPGA titan appears to be excited about facing rivals at Ohio and is hopeful she can do something amazing this time.
Commentators said that the professional golfer has gained enough confidence thanks to her stunning performance at the Evian Maters 2012, and she has to go into the Jamie Farr Toledo Classic with the belief
that she can be strong there as well.
Aiming for the title may be a little difficult for Gulbis, given the strong roster, but if the struggling American manages to finish inside the top 20, she can impress her fans.
Gulbis herself seems pretty influenced by her performance at the Evian Masters 2012, as she said in one of her interviews that she has learned how to tackle pressure on the course and will try to maintain her
momentum in the coming tournaments.
She said that when she kicked off the first round in France, she was a little nervous as the field featured most of the prominent LPGA contenders, but her game improved gradually and she had managed to pile
up enough score to finish inside the top 5.
When asked how she felt about the finish at France, although it was not a triumph, Gulbis said: “Good, because I had missed three of my last four cuts, and two of those four were in big events. I had a rough
kind of couple weeks off to work on my golf game, so it's nice to see positive things”.
