Kimberly Webster set out to accomplish two things when she decided to shed her clothes and go streaking across the golf field at the Presidents Cup on Sunday. Her first goal was to gain international fame from the courageous act, while the other was making history as an awesome female streaker.
A day after briefly stealing the spotlight at the Presidents Cup, Webster spoke about her daring dash on the 18th hole at Muirfield Village on morning radio show on WZLX in Boston.
"The day before, it started off as a joke. I mentioned it and thought it'd be funny," said the 23-year-old Boston native Monday morning. "I got home, did some research on the top streakers of all time and they seemed to be all men. I thought, let's try to change this."
Webster was reportedly working at the Presidents Cup as a banquet worker and showed up on Sunday wearing only a thong and pasties, covered in a raincoat. When the players took to the tee, she dropped the raincoat and grabbed an American flag before making a mad dash.
Although Webster intended to make it all the way to Tiger Woods, she ended up streaking by Steve Stricker when she had a stroke of genius.
"I thought that streaking for Stricker sounded great, so that's kind of what I ran with," she told Columbus, Ohio, NBC affiliate WCMH.
After making her bold sprint, Webster was arrested on the course at Muirfield for disorderly conduct and fined a $100 fine.
According to Webster, a friend in law enforcement gave her a heads-up about what to expect if caught.
"I called my friend that's a police officer," Webster told Denise Alex of NBC4. "And I was like, 'What are my charges going to be? Am I going to be a sex offender for this? What am I going to do?' And actually, he said that he would pay for the fines and whatever my bail was if I did it."
