If you could pick any living athlete, who would you want to play a round of golf with?

 

Manning? Brady? Bob Knight? Michael Jordan? If you could pick any athlete, who would you want to tee it up with?

My initial responses are all immature:  Anna Kournikova, Maria Sharapova, Paula Creamer, Jessica Korda, that hottie in @Mr. Desmond's profile pic who plays golf...........

Lets see on the dude's side:  I know a lot of people are going to mention Tiger and Jack and that would be awesome but maybe for me I would take Mike Tyson.  There is just something about him, and I think it would be great to get to spend that kind of time with him.  Whenever I hear him in an interview anymore he is usually talking about the movies, and his past and the way it was.  He seems to have changed a lot and has just so many life experiences good and bad and amazing that it would probably just be a blast to ride around in a golf cart with him and not say a whole lot but listen to him and let him do his thing provided he was in a good mood.  Plus there is always the chance that something out of bounds crazy might just happen whenever Tyson is around, even if it would be nothing like his days of old.

I have golfed with the Maddux brothers before. Both are pretty decent golfers. That said, if I had my choice of any athlete to golf with, it would probably be Yogi Berra. We'd discuss his short putt quote. I can't even begin to imagine what it would be like talking with that man while golfing. 18 holes would probably take 10 hours...........

Steph Curry plays alot of golf and is supposedly a low handicapper. Id tee it up with him. If not Curry then Id have to go with Tony Romo. Hes another good golfer.

Well, if we would expand this a bit outside of the notable atheletes.... Being a musician, I'd opt to play a round with Alice Cooper. I understand he's an excellent golfer.

Fame from sports does not really do a lot for me.

Not trying to suck up, but I would pick Erik or Mike.  I think my golf game would improve a lot more than if I was playing with Aaron Rodgers.

      Day 39: did top golf for an hour with the family. It was fun but also not really like real golf at all. Also did some mirror work - working on the backswing stuff mostly.

      Day 4, 1/2/26.  Played 18 today;  didn't get a chance to warm up (had I known the range was closed, I'd have hit balls at home first).  Played okay, 92 with three balls in the water.  It was raining for more than half the round and I didn't quite appreciate before today just how much I benefit from roll on both drives and approach shots.  I did not adapt well to this change until about hole 15, which is something I have to figure out.

      Day 459 - 2026-01-02 Had two guys on GEARS Hybrid, so I hopped on afterward (I'm going to do this a lot more often now). So… I've signed myself up for another month of backswing work in two ways: A little more extension of the trail elbow (got into the upper 90s) Less pelvis turn (low 50s).
