Cardigans, chinos and visors may be the first things that come to mind when you think of golf. But thanks to stylish 20-somethings Michelle Wie and Natalie Gulbis that image is changing - and the result is anything but stuffy.

Slim silhouettes, shades of black and fuchsia are debunking the myth that polos and khakis are the only way to master the green. After becoming the youngest player to qualify for the USGA at age 10, Korean-American Michelle Wie went on to rock countless tours in 2006. Though winless that year, she quickly started to make a stylish impact ditching traditional white attire and opting for feminine pastels instead.

Despite Michelle's timeless style, she says shopping holds no appeal. "I don't like going to the mall," she said. "I'm not really like the other girls. I just like to go out on the golf course and play."

Nevertheless, at 22, the 6-foot-1 Stanford grad looks every bit the fashion model. She has posed for Vogue, rocked a slinky emerald top, sexy stripes and asymmetrical red frock.

California girl Natalie Gulbis may look less exotic, but her male fan base is no less interested. With brief stints on the Golf Channel and an appearance on Celebrity Apprentice, the blonde bombshell has topped countless sexy-athlete lists. At 5-foot-9, the 29-year-old has extra-long legs - and she never ceases to show them off. She also cleans up well in this adorable little white dress

Natalie has some competition in the blonde-bombshell department. Bleacher Report is obsessed with Blair O'Neal - and it's no wonder why. Sponsored by PUMA and Cobra Golf, the 29-year-old has a sculpted body and chiseled cheekbones that could make Gisele jealous. From stripes to a cocktail dress, this stunner nails it every time.

Not to be outdone by the younger set, 36-year-old Sophie Sandolo has shown that Italian flair does indeed have a place on the course. The classic beauty has a talent for grabbing headlines. Maybe that's because she often poses semi-nude. We have to admit we prefer her covered up in white denim.

Either way, these women have made the fairway quite fashionable.
