There’s an American Express commercial in rotation right now that features a mildly-attractive woman discovering, quite by accident, that she is a talented golfer; the character then goes through a montage of buying the appropriate equipment to (presumably) go pro. Who is this woman? I get the feeling she is a famous athlete, but the only golfers who name I know are Tiger Woods and … um… some guy in Memphis whose wife was just sent to prison. Also, there’s a video game commercial featuring a a white male actor wearing an obviously fake mustache; is that Eli Manning? ---

The quarterback in question is Peyton. ---

I wondered about the woman myself. For an actress, she has way too good a swing to be just an actress.
