NEW YORK – SiriusXM announced that LPGA star Natalie Gulbis and top instructor Debbie Doniger will team up to host a new monthly show on SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio (XM channel 93, Sirius channel 208).
Doniger and Gulbis will make their debut live from the SiriusXM studios in New York City on Wednesday, September 24 at 2:00 pm ET. The Golfer Girls with Natalie Gulbis and Debbie Doniger will focus on, but not be limited to, the world of women’s golf. Doniger and Gulbis will discuss the LPGA and PGA TOUR and share swing tips for every level of player looking to improve their games. They will also invite celebrities on the show to discuss the game and will segue into topics ranging from fashion to music and entertainment.
“I have always enjoyed interacting with the media and talking about golf, and this partnership with SiriusXM gives me the opportunity to share my perspective directly with the audience,” said Gulbis. “Debbie and I look forward to offering our insights on everything in the world of golf – and many of our interests beyond the sport – to SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio listeners.”
“Natalie and I can't wait to deliver to a largely underserved niche in our sport,” said Doniger. “We will build a place for women to share our passion for the lifestyle and fun of the golf world. We will explore the latest information on fitness, instruction, entertainment, golf-supported philanthropies, clubs, courses, equipment, and fashion. So tune in and join us for a conversation you won't find anywhere else!”
“Natalie and Debbie make a terrific team and their experience playing and teaching the game gives them an exceptional point of view on their sport,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “Their personality and perspective on golf and the world beyond it will make this a fun and engaging addition to SiriusXM PGA TOUR Radio.”
