In Manhattan, hundreds of protesters dressed as corporate zombies in white face paint lurched past the New York Stock Exchange clutching fistfuls of fake money.

The Daily Iowan - Iowa City, Iowa - Tuesday, October 4, 2011 - 7 dailyiowan.com for more news News Practice and high jinks on the links Each Iowa women’s golf player has her own way of approaching practice. BY TORK MASON [email protected]

Golf is a sport often called an individual’s game — a sport without team- work in the most common sense of the word. That sort of individual- ism is apparent in a typical day of practice for the Iowa women’s golf team. “Everybody’s a little dif- ferent,” head coach Megan Menzel said. Each player spends most of her time working on the aspects of her game she feels need the most work. Some players spend their days on the practice greens going through a variety of chipping and putting drills, and others take time to hit the driving range and work on full-swing shots. The team will occasional- ly participate in organized drills, but it’s largely an individual process. And how each player approaches the day is just as variable as what she works on in practice. Freshman Shelby Phillips, for example, can often be seen by herself lis- tening to her iPod as she Junior Kristi Cardwell practices her putting as head coach Megan Menzel watches on Sept. 7.
