I don't have one. I don't know any of the guys personally.

I like the red neck gang though.

JD, Boo, Holmes etc.

Golf is a game in which the ball always lies poorly and the player always lies well.

There's so many golfers to like, especially the young crop of contenders. I even like all the Euros. But as someone who loves sport and competition and pure athleticism, Tiger is tops. I know that's an easy answer, but has there ever been anyone as fun to watch as that? He just delivers when you're not supposed to be able to time after time. You are not supposed to dominate golf like that. Every time we get to watch what he does its history being made. I don't know how it gets better.

In the bag:

Vijay. I would also like to see what a dedicated Greg Norman could do at 53/54. He is still in better shape than almost any Tour player.

The pride of Ireland, Padraig Harrington! He's so down to earth and a credit to his family and country!

If it's an all time list, no one beats the swashbuckling Seve Ballesteros in his prime. He's one of the reasons I got hooked on golf in the first place all those years ago!

My all-time favorite has to be Tom Watson. Of those currently playing I love to watch Phil Mickelson simply because it's always interesting. I also enjoy Fred Couple and Ernie Els because of those beautiful swings and easy going attitudes. Among the Euros I love to watch Luke Donald swing the club and see Darren Clarke being around anyone else (I would love to run into him in a pub in Ireland). Of the ladies, I would have to say Morgan Pressel is probably my favorite just because I think winning is more important to her than most others. I also like to watch the hot girls, but it doesn't seem like there are very many right now.

You have to appreciate someone who refers to himself as an Irish homosexual (he likes women but not beer).

CAMILO VILLEGAS! He has my favorite swing I have ever seen.. it is so simple but so smooth.

I also like Tiger, Adam Scott, Sergio Garcia, Anthony Kim... and can't forget Natalie Gulbis or Perry Swenson from Road Trip Myrtle Beach!

P.S. This is my 1st post and I'm wondering how I do that "In the bag" thing under all of my posts, so if anyone could let me know I would appreciate it

Ian Poulter - Seems like a really cool, down to earth guy and I love how he has his own flare and style.

And he's not on the tour, but I really like Hank Haney. He just seems like such a great guy that loves doing what he does and that's teaching golf. Not to mention, he's a hell of a coach.

    • It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…
    • I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
