Hank Kuehne dating Venus Williams after Paula Abdul fling: Think he's fretting over golf?

Hank Kuehne’s missed the cut in the last two PGA Tour events he’s played. He hasn’t finished above 135th this season and his highest finish last year was a tie for 49th.

Think Kuehne cares? Think again.

This is unremarkable pro golfer is a remarkable dater. His latest celebrity girlfriend is tennis star Venus Williams. Kuehne has even gotten Venus to come to the golf course to watch him miss cuts.

Now, that’s skill.

Kuehne has been bringing it for years too. He dated American Idol judge Paula Abdul in 2000, back when she was a little hotter and a lot less crazy. (Though still 13 years his senior.) Kuehne also has a young child. Just last year, Kuehne divorced from his wife (not Paula), apparently realizing she wasn’t a celebrity.

Now he’s doing more for golf than anyone outside of Tiger Woods.

Forget winning tournaments or even making cuts. Who cares that Kuehne’s long drive days are long gone? He’s bringing real celebs to golf.

If Kuehne somehow becomes tight with 50 Cent, WorldGolf.com’s own Brandon Tucker might even become a fan.

No chance, Chris. I had a talk with BTuck and have forbidden him from listening to that infernal hip hoop "music" any more. From here on out, nothing but Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and Robert Earl Keen for young Brandon.

I hope you made the 50 Cent reference solely because he's a rapper mainstream enough for our geriatric audience to identify. next time you're in town I'll play you some good stuff.

Anything I've ever written on this site that is bland or lame came as a result of writing it in Mark's castle office while he was rocking out to that Waylon crap, too.

Mr. Oshun, Brad did not say Paula Abdul and Kuehne have a child together! He said "Kuehne also has a small child"

Kuehne married a beautiful blonde named Nicole Feltman.
He begged her to marry him afterAbdul.
Well, he begged here for a child, Henry, age 2 and prompty replaced Alcoholism with gambling addiction and left her because he was bored. He needs to get a life. He has a pathetic outlook for golf and happiness

Who is Hank Kuehne? He never fulfilled the expectations that he would be a successful golfer. He is a loser who uses dating celebrities to keep his name in the news. Why is Venus dating him? She should look at his history and how he treated his wife. Wise up Venus.

Hank, While you were watching Venus in Wumbleton, you forgot to sign your divorce aggreement and legally prevented your ex wife and beautiful baby from moving on with their lives. Venus, take heed. This guy has the worst addictive personality and will squash you after he has taken some of your heat, soul, and money. GET OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

I dated Hank in college. He was a REAL charmer so I can see why these celebs fall in love with him. I caught him cheating on me and promptly broke up with him. He is definitely the ladies man, and I don't see him ever being faithful to one person unfortunatly.

I really feel sorry for Paula Abdul. She has a never ending trail of bad luck. Especially with the obsessed fan who killed herself this week.

Well....Hank probabaly would not date a black woman were she not as famous as Venus.

Though it is more common than before, it is still considered a social taboo to an extent.

You think he'd date Foxy Brown?

Or Foxy Brown date him?

Please.

Venus is very rich and famous...giving her goodies to a white men does not m,ke her less black. She may be nieve...but not less black.

It is not about race...but it is all about image.

He picked the perfect person to keep in "hot".

Well..Serena, who is built like a real black woman, seems to be more into her black men...which is not a problem.

There is nothing wrong with dating any race, UNLESS it is for show.

That is the wrong reason.
