Last night the Big Break Sandals Resort Finale aired on Golf Channel. Our spotlight player last year here on
Ladies on the Tee and our hometown favorite, Carling Coffing, was kind enough to invite me to her grandparents house to witness the outcome with a houseful of family and friends.
Trying to get information out of Carling prior to the Finale was impossible. This young women can keep a secret…aided, of course, by a Confidentiality Agreement required of every contestant. Week after week, I sat glued to the TV on Monday evenings at 9pm ET watching the drama unfold. The emotional toll was immense…on me!! Nevermind those 11 golfers fighting it out over 10 episodes (a 2-week period fro the golfers). I was a wreck!!
Soap operas have nothing on this format. The editing was quite interesting. What was more interesting was
watching Carling watch the edited version the same time we did. She had no inkling as to what the finished ‘product’ would be that aired. Queue it up for rivalries, snide comments and taking sides. This is reality TV at its finest…if there is such a thing???
The ups and downs were as frequent as the twists and turns on the largest roller coaster know to man. Time and again Carling rolled in clutch putts to ‘seal the deal’ and it certainly paid off in the Finale where, again she faced a 25-foot putt to take a 1-up lead over fellow finalist, Lili Alvarez on the 17th hole. She played the 18th hole solidly to take home the title of Big Break Sandals Resort WINNER.
But that’s not all she earned. Not by a long shot. Personally I think they should rename Big Break to “Super Huge, Over the Top, Mind-Blowing Break”. Here’s the list of CC’s earnings:
- $10,000 shopping spree at Dick’s Sporting Goods
- Endorsement Deal with Adams Golf that includes $10,000 cash
- $5,000 from Skycaddie for LPGA QSchool Entry Fees
- Exemption to the 2010 Lorena Ochoa Invitational
- Exemption to the 2010 LET Dubai Masters
- 7-night stay at Sandals Resorts and Spa with one guest ( I am thinking she’ll be inviting me….NOT!!)
- Exempt status on the 2011 Futures Tour
- Entry Fees paid for the 2011 Futures Season
Whew! That’s a whole new tax bracket, Ms. Coffing Good for you!
Our readers have followed your progression through your updates here on Ladies on the Tee and revel in your accomplishments on the Duramed Tour and now this crowning achievement. The door is wide open and the world is certainly your oyster, CC. Enjoy it!!
