Jodi Brings It Home
“Two, four, six, eight. Who do we appreciate?” Remember that school children’s rhyme from all those years ago, normally chanted on the side of a hockey or rugby pitch? You would then belt out the name of your school as an answer. Well, today I’m happy to shout out “Jodi Ewart Shadoff” lustily in response.
Ewart Shadoff (top), a 34-year old Englishwoman, who has plied her trade on the LPGA (Ladies’ Professional Golf Association) tour since 2011, recorded her first victory on said tour, the most demanding of all the women’s tours, last Sunday when she won the LPGA MEDIHEAL Championship in California. It was her 246th tournament on the American circuit, so hats off to her for persistence and twelve years of high-level professional play.
Jodi has had a sneakily impressive career starting with two English amateur titles in her late teens and numerous representative honours for her country. She went to college in New Mexico and never really returned to live in her homeland after that. She settled in the States and married her husband Adam Shadoff, a well-known sportscaster, in 2013. She has three Solheim Cup teams and one Olympics on her resume but there was always that one glaring omission on her list

Jodi Ewart Shadoff and her TV sports anchor husband Adam finally get a home game at LPGA Tournament of Champions
The first time Jodi Ewart Shadoff met her husband Adam was during her sophomore year at the University of New Mexico. Adam, a local TV reporter, interviewed Jodi after that first round in Albuquerque, and as the young Englishwoman kept playing well, they kept talking.
That conference victory eventually led to a date that led to a lifetime of conversations. But after college, the next time Adam found himself working a tournament with Jodi in the field was last week’s Hilton Grand Vacations Tournament of Champions in Orlando. Adam, a sports anchor and reporter at FOX 35 Orlando, came out to media late last year at Lake Nona Golf and Country Club.
Jodi, who won for the first time in her 246th start last year at the Mediheal Championship to qualify for the TOC field, was part of the pre-tournament interview panel. At the end of the session, a colleague in the room asked, “Nothing from you Adam? You’re not going to ask a question?”
Adam looked to his wife and jokingly asked, “Who’s the best sports anchor in Orlando?”
“She said ‘Get out of here,’ ” said Adam, smiling, “and she walked away. It was funny.”
