With that we are proud to announce the first ever Ballzy Awards.

If you want a chance to contribute to other awards this season we’d suggest checking out what Ryan at Waggle Room is doing this year.

As for the Ballzys?  They’re based completely on our own opinion, supported by limited (if any) facts and typically done during one of our editorial sessions.

So there’s that.  And here are the first set of Ballzy Awards for 2009.

Best line of BS: Sandy Lyle calls Monty a cheater, then says he’s not then says well he really is but I’m sort of sorry about it, but not really.  It’s best because it is so shitastically bad.

Worst line of BS: Pretty much anything said by Tiger Woods at a press conference.  A T-dub interview works better than Ambien.  But at times they are still ‘interesting‘.

Hottest Female Golfer:Sophie Sandolo.  Who you say? Just shut up and look below, or here.  We also don’t care if she is active on the LPGA tour or not.  We said ‘golfer’ right?  Not ‘great golfer who is hot’.  See that golf club in her hand?  Looks like a golfer to me folks, a hot one no less. Case closed.

Hottest Male Golfer: Hey, we’re secure enough in our sexuality and masculinity to be able to say ‘that’s a handsome man’ when we see one.  Which is of course why we’ve chosen John Daly as our hottest male golfer. Any doubts in the soundness of our judgment should be dispatched by the below photo.  That’s a handsome man.

That’s all for now.  Congratulations to all of our ‘winners’ and tune in over the next few days for more Ballzys.
