Faldo creating news again

It doesn't matter what he does or says Faldo gets critised one way or another. His record isn't to be sniffed at 6 majors, highest point score in Ryder Cup history, the best English golfer this country has produced. He is now an analyst or critic for TV and is there to pass his thoughts and opinions (like we all do on here) sometimes he gets it wrong at times but his knowledge of the game is second to none, a successful course designer and a funny bloke as well. I'm sure it was all in jest and if we held a course record we'd be thinking the same thing if someone was on the verge of breaking it.



I knew you would be a Faldo fan.


Personally, I think he is an utter fool.
 
I love Faldo and botham, homer - and for different reasons. The flamboyance and natural talent of botham who just turned up with a hangover, and played like god, to the sheer bloody mindless and doggedness of faldo grinding out 18 pars! Very different characters, but both winners.

so many great sports stars in them days! Daley Thompson, Coe, ovett, Bristow, Higgins, gower, seve, jockey wilson, Jimmy White, maradona, - and all had personality, and charisma that in general seems to be lacking in most of today's sports stars....
Constant media scrutiny and the fear of losing sponsors has put an end to personality!
