MAYBE YOU SHOULD BE FOLLOWING AUSTRALIAN GOLF

I'm not sure how many of you follow Australian golf, but you'll probably start doing that after you hear about this. It seems the lady off to your right is golf "star" Nikki Garrett. Yeah, I'd never heard of her either, but I'm sure you'd be happy to hear more.

Anyway, she's actually involved in a somewhat interesting case over in Australia. She's suing a magazine known as Zoo Weekly claiming the men's mag made her out to be a prostitute.

See the problem is that the magazine published a picture of a scantily clad Garrett originally taken for the Women of Professional Golf calendar to raise money for charity - and of course the mag put a rather interesting caption below it (no, I don't know what it was, but I can certainly guess).

Garrett said the article implied she was a person who would be photographed in lewd sexual poses for a "low-grade, smutty magazine like Zoo Weekly."

She claimed it falsely portrayed her as "a prostitute" and sexually promiscuous, "so lustful she likes having sex on a golf course," and the type of girl who "has sex indiscriminately."

Anyway, she's suing for defamation (which she won't win because she's a public figure) and breach of copyright (which she probably will win if the magazine didn't get permission to use the picture).

But either way, you now have a reason to follow Australian golf.
