It was always Seve and Langer for me, and Lee Trevino. Now, according to tours its...

European Tour: Miguel Angel Jiminez, Jamie Donaldson

PGA Tour: Zach Johnson, Bubba Watson

LPGA/LET: Suzann Pettersen, Morgan Pressel

Most of the above usually carry a few quid on their backs anytime they play right enough. ;)

Tiger Woods - commitment to the game/fitness levels/record/skill level/ability to visualise shots like the chip in on 16 at augusta/his mental game - always in his own world on the course almost.

Luke Donald - just love his swing, never rushed, very controlled and accurate.

Poults - ryder cup...enough siad.

on the flip side, for some reason i can't stand keegan bradley.

Mickelson and Rose are my two favourites to watch when they're playing well. Really enjoyed watching Snedekers recent form as well

David Duval-who could forget this guy in he's prime,cool attitude,sunglasses permanently on so he's opponents could never read him,taking the world no1 spot of Tiger,and shooting the best round of golf ive ever seen he's 59 at PGA West in 1999.
Phil Mickelson-love Phils swashbuckling style of play and he really is genuinely a nice person,oh and he can play a bit as well ;)
Seve- Same style of play as Phil,massive charisma,loved he's cheeky gamesmanship and unbeatable once...
Jack Nicklaus-Jack virtually made tour golf what it is today,when he first went on tour he travelled with he's entire family and stayed in cheap hotels and still managed to win tournaments,I'd like to see the modern touring pro's travel like this and still be able to win.legend,gentleman and the best player ever.

McDowell : Really admire his grit and determination and also great under pressure.

Keegan Bradley: Gets so much unfair stick at times i think. Think the unusual way he plays is interesting to watch. Followed him at the irish open and he's a great ballstriker and hits it miles. Seems a decent chap aswell. Think he has plenty more majors in him.

Padraig Harrington: Some achievement winning all those majors in a short space of time. Nice to see him in some good form again.

Also like Snedeker, Dustin Johnson and Jamie Donaldson.

Got to say that I don't like Poulter, obviously he was amazing at the RC last year but he seems like a guy who believes all his own PR and hype. Can imagine he'd be an arrogant SOB in real life. (Happy to be proved wrong of course)

Mate of mine fundraises for Dreamflight, a BA sponsored charity that gives dream holidays to terminally ill kids. They do a golf day to raise funds, Poulter turns out for that, spends all day there, gets his kids flogging raffle tickets and he can't speak highly enough of him. Know exactly what you mean about how he appears, but the mate concerned wouldn't give him the praise if he hadn't earned it.

For me in no particular order,

Martin Kaymer
Rickie Fowler
Dustin Johnson
Big Phil Mickelson
Justin Rose
Louis Oosthuizen


Actually thinking about it probably would be in that order. Special mention to Poulter though I love how he is in matchplay.

I'm late to golf despite my dad always playing so if I had to pick from a past generation it'd be Faldo and Norman as thats who my dad always seemed to be watching
