“Spider-Man", “Trendsetter” and even “Rock-Star” are some the monikers which come to mind when branding 26-year-old Camilo Villegas. Magazines are targeting him, with People voting Villegas one of its hottest bachelors and Golf Digest naming him one of the most ripped golfers on tour.

His flexible signature maneuver on the green is memorable. And ladies are attracted to his retro look from international clothier J. Lindeberg, who has been hailed as the most influential fashion designer in Sweden, claiming to have “reinvented the wheel” when creating golf fashion.

Villegas seems a bit overwhelmed by the attention thrust upon him and prefers to talk about golf, not girls.

“If people like the way you play, the way you dress, the way you look, that’s all good. But the bottom line is my goal is to play good golf,” Camilo stated in a Golfweek interview.

Take a tip from Natalie Gulbis, Camilo, and expand your horizons. Calendars and reality shows make plenty of money too and can turn Camilo Villegas the golfer into Camilo Villegas “business entrepreneur".

Camilo’s ability to stay focused on his golf game is one reason why we have chosen a putting tip from the up-and-coming Columbian player. Another reason for our selection is that Villegas’ positive putting stats on the PGA Tour don’t lie.

Golf for Beginners also takes a look at the mental game, honing in on how to outthink and outplay the competition. This week’s putting drill uses quarters as an incentive to make your view of the golf hole bigger and easier to hit. Click for more golf drills…
