Is Ryan Moore's position at address the ugliest thing on Tour?

[Shorty]

I'm just trying to think of something that looks worse than Ryan Moore addressing the ball.

Any suggestions?

This is the only position that matters to me......of course, i'm a greater seattle-tacoma guy and certainly a homer

If we're talking professionals, this is Eamonn Darcy

Maybe halfway into the backswing, but at address? Surely, Tommy Gainey holds that honor.

Gainey doesn't look like he's "going to the bathroom".

lmfao.  I've always thought the same thing.  Looks like he is trying to jam his  club up his ass.  Never liked watching him swing but, he is on tour and I'm not.

He's definitely really squatty over the ball. And it looks like he keeps his hands really close to his body. Not my favorite swing by any means, but he's the pro at my home course so I'm not gonna knock him.

The toddler shoes currently worn by Tiger Woods perhaps?

Thank you!!! Wtf? Dude can get any shoes he wants and he's rocking the new balance cross trainer of golf shoes?

Are we talking about body positions or clothing in here?

[xxsoultonesxx]

This might help. It looks like he arches his back dramatically.

Not sure - I've never noticed Ryan Moore's address position, possibly because his impact position is so good, but perhaps because his cloting is so awful. Not sure why anyone would care what a tour professional's address position looks like to be honest.

It's extremely important. It's a serious business.

More important than scoring and more important than sponsorship deals.

But nowhere near as important as telling the world you're a Christian and pointing to the sky when the cameras are on a la the saintly Zach J.

Give me Moore's "I'm taking a crap while I'm lining up" position over that any day of the week.

Someone's a little tense...

[Matthew Brett]

Agreed with Tom Gainey being the worst.

Watching Gainey's swing makes me involuntarily clench my teeth. It's like watching a semi truck collide with a train - you know what's coming, but you can't look away and you wince at impact.

Tommy two gloves wins it for sure. I was watching him this weekend, OMG his impact position!!! He's squats down so much, one time Nantz said he better watch out he doesn't hit himself in the head with the ball coming off the iron. It was so funny I spit up my coffee.
