golf.com named 12 innovators. Ran was one. Unfortunately the article required password access, and I never sign up for those types of things.

Steve,

It was a picture of Ran!
It was not a picture of Jordan!

In Jordan's defense, Natalie is quite fetching. In Ran's defense, he probably has a picture of Ms. Gulbis on a different wall. ;D

Jordan is in love with Paula Creamer.

Doesn't everyone have a Natalie Gulbis calendar?

Adam,
your post should probably stay on top for awhile.

BTW, anybody click on #12 in the article?

I still have a few of the GCA.com 5th anniversary posters featured in the photo:



Anyone interested please send me an IM.  As before, they'll be shipped upon my receipt of a check payable to GolfClubAtlas.com for $30 or $40.  I'll pay the postage so your check will be forwarded directly to Ran.

It is noteworthy that the posters were designed by golf course architect Forest Richardson and were hand-printed at the world-reknowned Hatch Show Print in Nashville.

I don't know... Golf's most beloved seems to have ditched the smoking jacket, pipe, champagne, and telescope... not quite 'the Continental' these days.

Its kind of sad that Ran and some of the others on this list are accompanied by someone at none other than Arizona State trying to create a pill to stop the yipps!

You guys keep talking about Ran.  Who is this Ran guy, anyway?  

Are you sure Ben and Tommy didn't just hire a cover?   I swear I've seen him in Irish Spring commercials.

Do you know if he does birthday parties?

One has to wonder if the disabilities act will be used to sue the PGA to let players use a yips pill.
