Put all the great golfers of the past 30 years in one field and I would be absolutely torn between Phil Mickelson and Freddy Couples, so those two have to be included........

Moe Norman just has to be on my list just from a pure golfing genius perspective....

I'd have to go with Tiger. When he had it rolling, he had everything.  Putting, short game, and mental game. He played the game with such ferocity that it was impossible not to be spellbound by his performances.

I believe I have answered this before on this site, and it's still Tommy Watson. I just like the guy, and his attitude. Yeah like everyone else there has been some negative issues, but I have also had the pleasure of a few extended conversations with him. Some were not even golf related. Golf wise, he has won his share of golf majors, and other tournaments. 

My distant second would be John Daly. Again, he's a pro golfer I have been able to converse with. 

As for the last 15 or so years, I dont have any new favorites. Although I witnessed some great golf being played, there has also been a lot of poor attitudes imo.

Joe Anthony. Not only could he hit the ball he was also a hit with the ladies. His "CADDY" Harvey Miller Jr really made sure he stayed on top ofhis game!  ?

    • Day 133 (25 Apr 24) - Worked with the Divot Board today added a piece of cardboad behind the ball to help reinforce ball first contact. Contact improved through the round.   Added grandson's football goal posts about 10yds out to add a good start line visual Good session today. 
    • Day 120: 4/25/24 Full Speed Spectrum training session. Low energy today and my speed was lower than normal. Will see what I can do on Saturday.
    • Day 541, April 25, 2024 Ten minutes after lessons. Still not caught up, but should be by tomorrow evening.
    • Playing irons only may lead to some short-term gains, but you'll want to at least practice with the driver if you ultimately have some decently good goals.
    • He plays from 68.3 / 124.  A combo tee setup of normal mens and seniors.   I play from 69.7/127.   He left after taking a triple on 14 and then leaving.  Which plays to what I think his plan is,   He doesn’t stroke on 14 but would have to take bogey for non completed holes on the way in.   Maybe that’s giving him too much credit, but he found a way to add 4 shots to his score over three holes so….     I looked up his last 20 rounds in GHIN and he has a lot of rounds at easier courses (rating and slope) that are higher than his normal rounds at home.   Since I mostly have his front nine score during the match (36) to go on, he has three nine hole scores at our course posted that are 41-43. I wrote the whole thing up to the head of our golf association who runs all the tournaments.  Our pro is not involved officially in the tournaments because the golf associations are separate from the club.   He’s pretty well known for this, however I was pretty shocked at how well he played carrying a 15.   I think eventually they will do something, a lot of people have complained.  The golf association threw someone out a couple of years ago and it was a three month situation where the guy retaliated.  They probably are hesitant to go thru anything like that again.  That is a rather crazy story I might post about later.
