Do any of you get "Inspired" by pros?

[Fore Right!]

I'm inspired by watching great golf as one of you guys said...however, I am also inspired when I see one of the greats flub a chip or leave an easy putt short. It makes me realize that EVERYONE screws up and that I don't need to flip out every time I do. These guys don't bitch and moan for 5 minutes when they mess up(well sometimes they do) so why should I. It's refreshing to realize that this game that I love so much and struggle with even more is tough, even for the very best at times.

I almost forgot the most inspirational figures of all

Natalie, Paula, etc..

Charles Barkley.


But seriously, Ben Curtis inspires me the most. He went to Kent State which is pretty close to me.

[Bourbon and Coke]

No, but if I were going to be inspired by a pro, it certainly wouldn't be Lefty.

Paul Goydos is somebody that really inspires me. That guy is hilarious and keeps her head up after everything that has happened to him. Classy guy.

I'd like to see JD get his game together. I know he's had some issues, but hes a great golfer, and he'll be back.

Paul Goydos. Period.

I have great respect for the pros because they are the best at playing a game I love. That being said. I think I get more inspiration from the average
golfers who I play with every week then I do from the pros. The professional
golfers are expected to play great because that is what they do for a living.
A few weeks ago I was playing with a 70 year friend that I have been playing
with for the last two years. The best round of golf I had ever seen him shoot
prior to that day was an 84. On that day this man who is 12 years older
then I am and is a verified 17 handicap shot a legitimate 75. He hit only
8 greens in regulation but he was able to make 4 birdies during the round
by chipping in twice from off the green and once from the sand trap. His score
would have been lower except he missed at least 3 birdie putts from within
7 feet. He never three putted during the entire round and he one putted
half the greens. I watched in awe as he shot the best round he has shot in what he said was the last 20 years. To me watching him play that round of
golf was far more inspirational than watching the pros who I expect to shoot
below par on a regular basis.

I almost always get some great inspiration after watching Freddy play. Just so stinking fluid and easy it brings a tear to your eye.

Mickelson and Rocco for me. Mickelson because of his guts and short game ability, and Rocco because I know him and he lives about 10 miles away from me. He's my friend's, dad's, friend's, friend. Think that one through haha.
