He just reached it earlier today, congrats to him!
He is the pro at a course about half an hour from me, and he lives close to the course.
He is doing a give away of some sort to a random follower too!
What is it that makes him so popular on Twitter? I can't think of any golfer who has anywhere near that number of followers!
He does upload pictures and videos very often, so i recommend you head on over, it's pretty interesting!

Have a good day Poults!

Poulter's a good marketer and communicator, or he has a solid PR team. You can tell that dude would of been a good salesman if he wasn't a pro golfer.

Well, he dresses loud enough to certainly garner a certain demographic. I've heard (unsubstantiated of course) that a vast majority of the tweets come male metrosexuals.

I can think of a golfer who has more followers in fact.Stewart Cink has had well over a million for quite a while now.Nice guy too.Poulter gets followers because he's perceived as being 'controversial' and outspoken.In reality, most of his comments are just moronic ramblings judging by what I've seen.Also, he can't spell and has poor grammar.

You forgot. "And he's English."

Seems like a decent enough chap. Although turning Bubba Watson on to "fashion" has to count as a strike against him.

thing about poults is, he's always entertaining, and he's a cheeky bastard as well. like him or not, he has an attractive personality, and if you've watched one of his vids you feel like he's addressing you personally and not just making a video for the sake of it.

Say's a man who does not put a space after a full stop

Seriously though, some of what he twitters about seems like boasting to me, but most of it is harmless fun.

      Are these course getting easier? are the players getting better? should we not worry about tournaments that used to produce single digit winners are now producing course records year after year.  I am not talking roll back I am just curious why scores are so much lower than five to ten years ago.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      I've posted plenty of positive things about Tiger over the years. I just like to play fair.  But if you want to see me praise TW some more here you go: 12 wins by 7 shots or more - Jack had 4 3 separate win streaks of 5 or more in a row - Jack won 3 in a row once It took Jack 172 more events and 9 extra years to reach Tiger's 71 wins by 2009 TW is the only player since 1900 to win a major by double digits and he did it twice 30% peak win rate is even higher than the previous record holder Ben Hogan (25%) 11 time PGA Tour Player of the year - Jack had 5 12 times lead the Tour in wins - Jack 6 10 times money list leader - Jack 8 Jack officially has 73 wins, but 2 of them are team wins with Arnie. You could argue he should be listed with 71 and I wouldn't disagree.

      Jack vs. Tiger: Who's the Greatest Golfer?

      By Golfnutgalen · Posted

      I mean that's clearly an opinion.  The funny thing is I never even attacked Tiger, I just pointed out that the other poster had a point when he mentioned that Jack had a longer career. Tiger basically had 5 years when he could have been winning more tournaments if not for his injuries. 2010-2011 and then again 2015-2017. Hard to make the argument after his final win because not many players win a ton after age 43.  If those numbers support the fact that Jack had a longer career so be it. Don't take that as an affront to Tiger.

      Just getting back into golf after a 30 year break from the game. Hoping to get some advice and insight on becoming a decent player.    Right now I'd be hard pressed to break 95

      Even injured Tiger had a more impressive career than Jack against much stiffer competition. This was confirmed by Jack quite a few times. You want to ignore that, but it’s fact.
