My favorite golfer is the "Big Easy" I relate because we are about the same size and he makes the golf swing look so effortless. I also like his attitude and his recent re-dedication to being #1 again has got me excited to watch golf. I think his recent change to has slowed him down a bit in his quest (not because of the clubs but becuase of the change) but I think when he gets it going he is going to light it up. I am looking forward to the US Open where he won the last time it was played at Oakmont. Go Ernie!!!

Correct and personally I think he needs to go back to his Scotty Cameron putter...

Craig Stadtler. I think the guy has style. He had a great run some years ago, and still manages to make the cut now and then. Stadtler was my hero when I first started golfing (or at least a version of golfing) back in the mid 80's.

I like Mike Wier too, but I wish he didn't do that annoying waggle. Mike's a Canadian icon among young golfers. I see all kinds of kids doing the Wier waggle now and I don't think it's helping them.

Tiger because he is such a gamer, and so good. Reminds me of MJ, just always willing to do whatever it takes.
I also like Camilo Villegas, Zach Johnson, and Adam Scott.

I would say my favorite would have to be Fred Couples. He has been steady for many years. Hope he can recover from the back for next year.

Being a Lefty Myself, I am quite partial. I have been a Phil-guy every since High School Golf in the late 90's. Right now I have been finding myself cheering for Bubba Watson though.

I have two. I'm a big Tiger fan since he's a big reason I took up golfing. He made golf exciting for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm pretty sure the older greats were pretty impressive to watch...but he just took that "oh, golf is an old man's sport" image and feel away.

I also like Ernie Els. That guy has one of the most fluid, relaxed swing I've seen. He always carries himself like a true gentleman and I've never seen him lose his cool. Ever!

To chime in on the argument about Sergio's attitude problem...a lot of golfers have attitudes. It's just some hide it better than others. For example, I volunteered to work a hole for a PGA tournament. One of my duties was to locate their ball if it went into the rough. Davis Love's ball went into the rough, so I ran to it, stood next to it, and raised my hand. He walked up and said "I know where my ****en ball went!" But you won't hear about that in the news...

(Just for the record...I heard that Tiger leads the PGA in fines for dropping the F-bomb on live TV... in his defense, it's because the cameras are always in his face.)

I like Jim Furyk right now because he is and has always been playing soo well. I like Adam Scott too; he is an up and comer that could challenge the upper tier of golfers very soon

got a few, probably paul casey is favourite then henrik stenson and monty
I've always been a fan of Zach Johnson (before he won the masters. Go SeeMore) and Justin Rose. I just love Rose's swing.

I'd have to go with Adam Scott because of his youth, talent and great swing.

Mike Weir also because he is a fellow Canadian, and a lefty. He brought the green jacket to Ontario!

    • Musgrove Mill hole #15 was converted to a par 3 after Hurricane Helene. Today, I had 145 from the tee which is a perfect 9-iron for me. I aimed just right of the hole and pulled it a few feet. Clanked off the stick down into the hole and ricocheted out of the hole 13’ away. Drained the putt for a birdie after repairing the hole which was damaged . Not sure if it would have counted as a HIO, but I was pretty excited!
    • Day 55 - 2024-11-24 Did five levels of Operation 36 on GSPro (different courses). 🙂 Was -4 from 200 yards (32) intentionally laying up on each hole (i.e. not hitting a 5I or something). Shot… 22, 24, 26 from 25, 50, and 100 yards. I forget my 150-yard score, but obviously it was < 36. Putting was odd… (and I did it with the wedge or a 7I or whatever was in my hand).
