BEEF

[Scotsclaff]

Not much to say about Beef on this one,he made the cut.

Hope he improves on the next one.

I'm a fan of Beef and hope he's here to stay. He's a normal guy from humble beginnings...His dad drives a bus and his mom serves school lunches. His appearance may be rough but his swing is smooth and I hope Arby's paid through the nose for him.  and apparently his autograph is just "Beef" http://www.golf.com/tour-and-news/beef-johnston-exits-pga-championship-style.  Question is, could he join the list of other single-named celebrities?...like Sting, Madonna, Cher, or maybe more realistically Coolio...or Fabio?

He's getting a lot of press in the UK too. Some village somewhere is missing its idiot... And he wasn't even the top English player at either Troon or the PGA-that was Tyrell Hatton both times. The media is a funny thing.

Beef won't change his name to Tofu.

The dude is always smiling, very likable, he's having fun out there.  Hatton may be a better golfer but he looks like he hates golf, always scowling and complaining.  Hatton needs to be a lot better for that kind of  on-course behavior to become marketable.

Yep, I am pretty sure you are right in what you say about Hatton. But he is the only one of the two who has a chance of making the Ryder Cup Team (although I don't think he will). Beef is smiling because he can't believe his luck!

Beef taking a break this week.Can't see him on any leaderboards.

The Beef is trolling golf and i love it.

I would venture to say that by making it fun Beef is getting kids (16-25) into the game. I know of one personally.

A day in the life.

He's a good dude.  Yank like me could only understand about every 3rd word he said but he had a smile on the whole time so I figure it was happy talk.

The guys done more for golf this year than the olympics ever could.I hope he sticks around for a while.

Nice wee story about him and Butch Harmon.

Looks like another week off for Beef.

I can't find his name on the entry lists for the Czech Masters or the Wyndham.

Beef on -9,four behind the leader before going into the final day at the Omega masters in Switzerland.

Stunning course.
