Why You Could Someday Caddie for Amy Winehouse

The game of golf tends to attract people from all over the world, in many different types of professions. After all, it is a game unlike any other that offers an addicting challenge. Perhaps addicting wasn’t the best choice of words there in terms of this piece of news, as it seems as though singer and songwriter Amy Winehouse has decided that a little golf is exactly what she needs to stay away from all that bad stuff out there in the world.

In a quote from The Sun:

“She played nine holes and loved it, she had a natural swing. Amy wants to learn how to play properly now.”

Of all the celebrities in the world that I thought would possibly be in the news today for taking up golf, Winehouse probably wasn’t in the top 20,000 or so. I mean seriously, did you wake up this morning and say to yourself, I really hope that Amy Winehouse decides to play golf some day? If you did, well, then I guess you’re one happy person right now.

But hey, if she thinks that golf will keep her away from alcohol and drugs, more power to her. I just hope her opinion of the game doesn’t change after the inevitable four-putt from 12 feet.
