sorry this late, I've been busy with school and what not.

These aren't in order because I don't have a single favorite.

Davis Love III. He used to live down the street from my aunt, he is sponsored by Polo and Titelist (two of my favorite things), and when he won the PGA after his dad died was one of my first memories of professional golf.

Phil: He is the anti Tiger and I hate Tiger so enough said.

Stuart Appleby: I just dig this guys game and that fact that he has his hair grown out like true Aussie surf bum and he drives a yellow Lamborghini

Rich Beem: That little impromptu dance after he won the PGA made me a fan. He's just a guy who likes to have fun playing golf. I'm always happy to see him on the leaderboard or climbing on the back of Nissan 350Zs

sorry this late, I've been busy with school and what not.

Great interview with Appleby in this months Golf Digest. He seems like a good guy. He is not affraid to speak his mind. I would love to see him paired in singles with Phil after some of his comments. Then again, he would likely slaughter Phil.

Beem seems like a guy that you would just want to hang out with and have a few beers. He comes off as a guy that would fit right in with your Sunday morning regulars.

I know man, he is always smiling and never seems like he's pissed. Out of all of the guys on tour, he is one of the guys I would most like to play with.

I'll have to go:
1. Tiger
2. David Toms (we both are LSU alum.)
3. Jim Furyk (I just love the fact that he doesn't have a "perfect swing")
4. Stewart Appleby (I don't know why, but I find myself routing for him every week)
I'm only at 13 clubs in the bag, what do you reccomend as a 14th? My foot wedge?

I wouldn't be able to take the club back I'd be laughing so hard.

Hard not to like the Beemer. Kudos to him for getting the job done last week and getting himself a spot in the Deutsche Bank. Gotta love his attitude about this week's event. First, second or he goes home.

I never get sick of watching Tiger Woods. Every time I watch him, he manages to amaze me with some of the shots he pulls off. Hes just incredible.

Im always rooting for Mike cause hes a fellow Canadian. Ive seen some glimmers of greatness lately, and im sure hes gonna put 4 rounds together soon and come out ontop .

Lorena is the Tiger Woods of the LPGA. While there is no comparison game wise obviously, she is dominating the tour like he does on the PGA. She has in my opinion one of the best, if not THE BEST looking swing in golf. She's an absolutely amazing golfer.

Ive enjoyed watching Phil for years. He seems like one of the most down to earth guys on tour. My jaw drops when I see some of the shots he pulls off from around the green. You can never count him out of getting up and down no matter how horrid his lie might look. Hes got some of the best hands in golf in my opinion.

I agree that she is awesome, but I would call her the Vijay Singh of the LPGA. Not to slight what she has done, but it has come at a time where arguably the greatest female player in history, Anika, has been out with an injury and is just now getting back. Much the same way Vijay rose to the top while Tiger was rebuilding his swing and dealing with his knee surgery. The biggest difference is that by all accounts she is not an A-Hole like Vijay. I look forward to a 100% healthy Anika going head-to-head with her. They are phenomenal players and it would be great for the game to see them battling every week.

What!?!? How did you come to that conclusion? I'd say he's one of the most respected players amongst his peers.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.

      First time playing this game, Spanish is my native language. It was impossible for me. After 4 worlds I run out of worlds that have the letters I've already found that can be combined with the remaining letters.. just repeated the 4th world to knew the answer. I know the world but it never came to my mind.
