In my opinion I would like to interview Peter Alliss (A golf commentator over in England).
He sounds a nice guy with a good sense of humour and has a lot of anecdotes that would make the interview go quickly.
If he wasn't available then I'd go for Ernie Els

Id interview John Daly. He doesnt take himself too seriously and is happy in his own skin. He also says what he thinks and could tell more than a few stories thats for sure. Next would be the Golden Bear- he really is God, and i believe he provides an invaluable insight in to golf. If Jack hasnt done it, its not worth talking about.

There are too many journeymen on tour who are just corporate automatons these days, so there arent that many from the current generation that would be interesting to interview, apart from Boo Weekly ('i wanna live off the fat a' the land).

Professional Golfer: Freddy Couples- I'd like to walk along with Fred while he plays a casual practice round at Augusta and just listen to him speak freely about his career and golf in general.

Professional at anything else? Michael Jordan

Tiger. I've seen him on talk shows and he seems pretty much like a normal guy who loves golf and people. He jokes around a lot, and isn't a robot like I've seen some pro athletes who just answer the question and stare at the host, waiting for another question.

Geoff Oglivy seems like a cool guy wouldn't mind interviewing him Brandt S. might be fun too.

I would like to interview/talk with Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. I would like to tell them "THANK YOU" for getting me interested in golf over 50 years ago by having a rivarly that I enjoyed watching on TV (mostly in balck and white). This love of golf has been passed to my two sons who at 34 and 21 are enjoying the game as I do. Each of my sons has independently commented how glad they are I started them playing golf. I would like to thank Mr. Palmer and Mr. Nicklaus for getting a small town boy who was not very atheltically inclinded interested in a game that can be played and enjoyed for a lifetime and which can be passed down to his sons (sorry but my daughter just never took the hook in terms of taking up golf).

    • Back in my Army days a "gooch" was a particular part of the anatomy. Example, say Okeechobee is the b-hole of Florida, then Belle Glade would be the gooch. Seems he wears his name well.
    • I can't say that I remember a lot of individual putts, but I do have one specific memory.  The first time I played the Old Course, I had hit a pretty good drive on the 6th hole.  I had about 60 yards left, and due to the swale in front of the green, there was no chance of flying a wedge on or near the green and having it stop on the green.  My caddie recommended either a running 7-iron chip or a putt, and I took the putter and a pretty hard swing.  The ball rolled over humps and through hollows, disappeared into the swale in front of the green, and re-appeared heading right at the hole.  I ended up maybe 12 feet away.  The caddie turned and held out his hand to shake mine, and said "Now THAT was a golf shot!"
    • For the first time since 2021, I made a 3 on the 12th at Stoneleigh.    395 yards, something like 80 feet uphill, I hit a solid drive and a 7-wood to inside a foot.  Even I couldn't miss that one.  I feel like I haven't played a lot of golf this year, but I'm making decent progress.
