Washington Post throws golf blogs some love

In their April 20 edition, the Washington Post gave some love to golf bloggers -- specifically mentioning the Rebel Blogger, Jennifer Mario and the rest of the crew here at Blog Central. Here's an excerpt:

"Travelgolf.com has gathered a stable of bloggers (www.travelgolf.com/departments/blogs) in service of drawing eyeballs to its golf travel booking site. Several of these journals are devoted to the pro game, but a couple at least mix in observations about life from the white tees. The Rebel Blogger (despite his habit of picking dogfights with other golf bloggers) is refreshingly unforgiving of various resorts, courses, equipment, teaching methods, and so on. And a new journal by Jennifer Mario, a self-described 'female hacker and golf writing young mom,' looks promising."

The paper also gave a well-deserved salute to Rob's Bad Golf Blog. Rob's been flying under the radar for the most part since Jan. 25. Come on, Rob, we need you. And to SortaGolf, a blog that "applies much needed amendments to the USGA Rules Of Golf that allow recreational golfers to play more satisfying golf while maintaining the competitive integrity and essential essence of the game."

They also spotlighted Golfers' Asylum but frankly, this one's a snooze. YMMV.
