Ursula Cullen #
- Rookie of the Year 2007
Most Improved 2008
Most Holes-in-one trophy winner 2010
Age: 40
Occupation: Credit Analyst
Mini golf experience: Ursula has her own putter. She is the official Peruvian representative for the Mini Masters this year.
Interesting facts and boring lies: Ursula loves Mad Libs and finding recipes for Matthew to cook. She also really enjoys off-roading in Matthew's Jeep. Ursula loves making abstract paintings from chicken broth and french fries. She spends a good portion of her time at work creating a new universal language based entirely on emoticons and punctuation marks. It's called ".,;!!:)(;{;P}[}]." Finally, Ursula has spent many years debating the "Which came first, the chicken or the egg?" argument, being a huge proponent of the egg side. In true Peruvian fashion, she has won most of her debates and celebrates by throwing actual eggs at her opponents.
