IJP’s new Website
Ian Poulter is probably one of the most colorful players on the circuit, and I mean that not only because of his clothing. Besides playing golf, he is a car enthusiast and a twitter junkie (I think only Stewart Cink has more followers than Poults), loves soccer (Arsenal in particular) and is a very likeable guy alltogether.
His new website reflects all these characteristics in a very state-of-the-art way. On fullscreen flash video Ian himself guides you through the content. I love the garage tour when he talks about the first junk cars he owned up to the newest toys in the garage.
The global tracker let’s you see his current and past locations, Stats and Schedule shows you the tournaments and results. Links to his Facebook-, Youtube- and Twitter-pages round up all the information on his site.
I love the site because it makes it easy for the IJP fan to know more about the man. Something Martin Kaymer and his management have failed to do the last years. I just hope they will wake up sometime soon and do something about is. IJP’s website may serve as a good blueprint in my opinion!

Say something!
An article about a new website without any link to it? Shame on you! And one big point of criticism to Poults site: Full-screen flash is NOT a website and generally stinks.
Yes, i like the guy, but i really hate full screen flash-only sites. And i hope that Martin Kaymer will do better in this aspect.
Link added, thanks for the hint.
And I’ll be glad if Martin Kaymer did ANYTHING online!
I have to agree with Dirk, Flash only Sites are just not done
Some of the Belgian Pro golfers also have a website .. the even update it frequently .. they however still have to figure out RSS etc
You’re right, if Martin did anything online it would be great. Probably he first has got to get a hold on the domains with his name which are of course already registered and probably in the hands of domain squatters.
Luckily, his father at least got hold of the domain martin-kaymer.de.
The domain martinkaymer.de is in the hands of a Golfmanagement-Agency, though not the one representing Kaymer but fellow german golfer Patrick Niederdrenk
