This is a really really tough question..
Golf - obviously it would be Tiger the best Ever!

>>>Now,
Hockey - tie between Sid Crosby and Ovechkin, 2 AMAZING PLAYERS! Plus, Simone Gagne I see him cruising around in his ferrari sometimes.
Football - Jack Lambert in his day (alltime fav), and Brian Westbrook now
Baseball - Chase Utley! or Ryan Howard/Jimmy Rollins
Basketball - ONLY 2 people, Jordan or Wilt inthere primes..
MMA -Easily Fedor!!!!!!!!!! Maybe the baddest man ever!!!!!!!!!!
Surfing - Kelly Slater!

golfer - tiger woods

OK LYMIE and/or descendant of CONVICTS:

If you are going to insult the NFL, then spell "real" correctly! Thanks for mentioning Sir Don. I wasn't aware of his accomplishments as batsman--getting Cricket in the States is harder than getting good food in the UK. Getting Aussie Rules Football (which I suppose you would call "the other not reall football") is also hard. This is a shame, as I think it is superior to both Football and American Football. By the way Mr. thesandtrap, who joins a forum and chooses its title as a screen name? What's your email address? hotmail@hotmail.com ? google@gmail.com ?

What about rugby? I haven't' watched for some time. But when I did watch, the World League stuff was great to watch. I liked the New Zealand All Blacks, and England's team.

Golfer = "Big Easy" (most fluid swing ever produced) and 3 majors so far...

Non-Golfer = Dr. J (Julius Erving) ....greatest dunker of all time and a great ambassador to the sport of basketball. Greatest dunker you say? Better then Jordan? Well let me tell you that a few years back I was watching a Bulls game (after Jordan retired) and the announcers were talking about Jordan and his dunking. One of the announcers (forget his name) was an ex-coach of Jordan's and played for the 76er's back when Dr. J was still playing. He told a story about after practice one day when Jordan was still with the Bulls that they had a slam dunk contest and that he told Jordan and the rest of the bulls about a dunk he saw Dr. J do once and Jordan could not do it...he said he even stayed for about a 1/2 hour after eveyone left to keep trying and could not do it...the dunk was as follows:

Dr. J would stand out of bounds directly behind the back board and without touching in bounds at all would jump up and in and dunk the ball...try it!

      Day 430 - 2025-12-04 Slow motion backswings (with chippy shots) with AlmostGolf balls.

      Day 24 (4 Dec 25) - Spent about an hour working with the new 55° wedge in the backyard.  Kept all shots to under 20yds.  Big focus - not decelerating thru downswing and keeping speed up with abbreviated backswing.  Nothing like hitting a low flighted chip with plenty of check spin and then purpose to float a pitch of similar distance.

      Day 114 12-4 Put some work in on backswing, moving the hips correctly, then feeling over to lead side. Didn't hit any balls was just focused on keeping flowy and moving better. I'll probably do another session tonight and add in some foam balls.

      Differential vs Course Handicap

      Didn't say anything about your understanding in my post.  Well, if you are not insisting on alignment with logic of the WHS, then no.  Try me/us. What do you want from us then?? You are not making sense. You come here and post in an open forum, question a system that is constructed with logic, without using any of your own and then give us a small window of your personal experience to support your narrative which at first sight does not makes sense.  I mean, if you are a point of swearing then I would suggest you cut your losses and humor a more gullible audience elsewhere. Good heavens.
