World Series of Golf Danny Negreanu and K. J. Fohannesen on WGN America Saturday July 11th 1 pm EST


















Danny Negreanu who is the sweetest guy in the world even when he's taking you down and January along with fellow golfer Norwegian 3rd Place Winner K. J. Fohannesen! Even though, K. J. and January traded hats K. J. did not make that putt!

January Jones will be playing in the World Series of Golf to be televised this week on WGN America in a golf and poker format with a top prize of $300,000. This event is a reality golf competition that was played earlier this year at The Pauite Resort in Las Vegas. It will be aired in 13 weekly episodes starting on Saturday, July 11th at 1:00 am EST.

Ms. Jones was 1 of 2 women in a field of 125 players. Her goal was to represent women golfers and all "chronologically challenged competitors" who love to play in the game of life as well as golf. Professional golf instructor, Roger Gunn, helped her to train and prepare for the tournament. He accompanied January to Las Vegas as her financial advisor and caddy during the competition.

To quote January, "Every woman alive, who plays golf knows it's not about how you play or perform but what you wear and how you handle winning or losing. Just ask, Susan Boyle!"

Ms. Jones will be playing in a field that includes top-flight golfers, entertainers such as actor Ray Romano, poker players and athletes including Future Hall of Fame pitcher, Greg Maddux. Ms. Jones played in a five-some that included Poker Superstars, Chris "Jesus" Ferguson, Danny Negreanu and Andy Bloch all with eyes on the top prize.

January was sponsored by Taylor Made–adidas Golf who graciously supplied her with golf clubs, clothes and shoes with her signature colors of red, yellow and black. These are the colors on the cover of her recent book, Thou Shalt Not Whine…The Eleventh Commandment published by Beaufort Books that reached a #1 ranking at amazon.com.

Ms. Jones is the national spokesperson for Yar Golf who have customized a special version of their revolutionary GX1 putter designed for adaptive golf. The GX1 putter retrieves your ball from inside the hole without your having to bend down.

Golf is a topic that is thoroughly discussed during the "Tee Time Talk" segments on her radio show "Whine Time with January Jones" live on voiceamerica.com every Thursday at 9 am PDT with LIVE call in.
