Czech Republics Model Petra Němcová presents a million-dollar golf ball at the Czech Republic’s biggest golf tournament; an earthy cartoonist illustrates short stories by Jan Neruda; Markéta Irglová and her younger sister record a track for a compilation from their hometown; both the “heparin killer” and the country’s best known prisoner inspire new movies; and a four-wheeled “duck” festival attracts enthusiasts from around Europe.
The world famous Czech model Petra Němcová introduced an unusual item when she appeared as a special guest at the Czech Republic’s biggest golf tournament, the Moravia Silesia Open, a few days ago. Němcová, who admitted she had no interest in the sport, took part in the first public presentation of a diamond-encrusted golf ball at the club house at Čeladná in south Moravia. It was especially made for the European PGA Tour. It’s very light, the girl from Karviná said of the golf ball, which features over 400 diamonds and is apparently worth CZK 20 million (over USD 1 million). So not everyone’s feeling the effects of the crisis then. |
