Natasha PodmoreAdrian's comments 2004 :
Natasha has had a fantastic 2004, with so much success in many areas of her game and development as a player. Considering 'Tash' only started playing the game in 2001 her achievements are outstanding is such a short space of time. As soon as I started coaching Natasha in the winter of 2001 I could see that not only her height and natural leverage advantage would distinguish her from the crowd but also her attitude towards her lessons and practise would set her apart too. At over 6' and with a flowing lazy rhythmic swing, it is no wonder Butch Harmon and his three highly respected coaching brothers nick named Tash 'The Big Easy' after her Ernie Els like action when they coached her during the Red Bull Masterclass event at the Belfry this year.

All departments of her game are solid and recent improvements in reducing any excessive slide and 'wristiness' through impact has made Natasha an even stronger player. Her current gym work and practice regime is increasing her existing powerful striking but a few extra yards will be very beneficial for competing in more major amateur and ultimately professional events.
Her record for 04 speaks for itself with County Girls and Ladies Championship victories to her name plus representing her Country and competing respectably her first National events. 2005 should see Natasha firmly establish herself in the National squads and gain even more recognition and popularity as the quality player she is, accompanied with her amiable and easy going attitude to fellow golfers.

 

Cheshire and England prodigy Natasha achieved the double by winning the Cheshire Ladies County Championship for a second time at Caldy Golf Club in tough gale force conditions.

Natasha finished 3rd in the strokeplay qualifying event then won through several matchplay rounds against a host of other high quality County players to overcome Sue Dye in the final by 4&3. This places Natasha in an elite band of players to secure the championship more than once and demonstrates how her work ethic will continue to take her to even greater heights.
