At the risk of stating the bleeding obvious there isn’t a cooler golfer on the planet. Layered up and wet through he still manages to carry it off. All things crossed he wins tomorrow

Is his annual bonus dependant on how many threads he starts? ?

Surely the Birthday Boy, Mr Freddie Couples, has to be cooler than all but possibly Miguel..?

Is any golfer “cool”? After all we all dress badly and play golf. Neither of which is cool ?

maybe he’s joined from the Daily Mail’s clickbait department?
Not sure golfers are cool but Jimenez's approach has to be close to it. Thought Rock played well today but I'd put it more in the grinding category than cool. Would love to have seen Jimenez's hair in all that rain. Could have resembled Hair Bear

Gives him bragging rights when coaching his players. Shows it’s not that hard on the limited appearances he makes these days on the ET. Regularly seems to have good rounds still.

Does simply not wearing a hat make him the coolest golfer in the world? Not sure about that.

I thought he'd won more than he has.
It’s not the hair/hat, it’s the swing (and I do like his clothes)

The first pro tournament I went to was The Jonnie Walker Classic at Gleneagles. Throughout the day the golfers studiously avoided making eye contact or acknowledging anyone in the crowd. There was one par 5 pushed back from the normal tee that could barely cope with anyone around it. It was a good vantage point to watch them really unleash so about 4 of us stood behind the sponsors board at that tee. Each golfer walked back, looked through each of us, hit their shots, walked away. Rock walked towards the tee, big beaming smile. "Hello lads, having a good day?" He hit a cracking drive and as his group walked away he turned back and said "enjoy the rest of your day". Really simple bit of interaction but lifted all of us.
I'm with the OP, he is a top man who seems to be very grounded and enjoys his job.

I did appreciate his very loud obscenity after a bad drive on the 12th or 13th. It was a beauty!
This genuinely warms my soul. Think he’s very normal and is a world away from some of his peers
It was a cracker wasn’t it. He managed another one on the 17th tee
