Mine is Andy Sullivan, one of my friends is a Sr VP for Wasserman in London whose client is Andy.  So I've been following him for a while.  I'm hoping to get to meet him at the Master's.  Bernd Wiesberger is another of his clients that is playing in the Master's, he also has Rickie, Zach Johnson, Hunter Mahan and Tom Watson.

Ollie Schneiderjans...he has a strong amateur background; a good finish at the Open Championship; and three PGA top tens in his rookie year (2016-17)...I saw him on the Web.com tour last year and was really impressed....he will break through soon...:-)...

Zach Johnson for me. Love his swing, and his attitude, plus I've heard good things through the grapevine.

I like Zack too, but I wouldn't call a major winner "under the radar". :-)

I would.  I feel kind of harsh saying it but that win looks like a blip when you look at his performance in other majors.

I don't know if Snedeker counts as "under the radar" but I always root for him.

I thought about that, but I still think that he would classify as lesser-known. He's a lowkey guy, and a lot of the tournaments he's won (save the two majors) have come at smaller events, like the John Deere or Valero.

I am going to the web.com tour.  Rick Cochran III.  Have practiced beside him at the local range.  Amazing watching someone on the web.com tour that looks so good but hasn't made the PGA yet. Hopefully his injuries are behind him and he can get his putter going and win an event soon.

just my take - but guys who are (or have been) in the Top 10 OWGR are not what I would classify as "lesser known/under-the-radar" players

I like Jhonattan Vegas.  Always seems to keep a positive attitude and genuinely seems to be having fun out there.

I also have to admit that I pay a lot more attention to Joost Luiten as a result of my friendship with @MacDutch and his band of Dutchies.

Yep, 2 majors, 12 wins on tour, 5 ryder cups, $40MM in winnings, puts you on most radars.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By WillieT ·

      Day 211 (29 Nov 24) - Friday men’s round albeit a solo foursome (temps in the 40’s, day after Thanksgiving and the average age closer to 75 - I’m a youngster at 65).  Interesting day of semi-solid play (8 of 18 GIR). Hit all four par threes in one (a first) - parred each; still had a couple 3 putt bogies; and blew up on 3 of the par 5’s (go figure)). The blow ups were some serious tree rattlers - amplifying how I got stupid and greedy instead of smart and content to just get back in the short stuff.

      "5 Minutes Daily" Practice Challenge

      By iacas ·

      Day 60 - 2024-11-29 Got about 3.5' of snow today, so I was going to go to Golf Evolution, but… I only left the house to throw some snow. Instead, i checked out my putting stroke on HackMotion in the basement. Turns out… it's pretty good, and I'm very in touch with what I'm doing.

      First time playing this game, Spanish is my native language. It was impossible for me. After 4 worlds I run out of worlds that have the letters I've already found that can be combined with the remaining letters.. just repeated the 4th world to knew the answer. I know the world but it never came to my mind.
