Aside from the BIG names in golf these days… is there someone you enjoy watching play on TV…? Maybe they’re the underdog or just interesting & entertaining.
 
I enjoy watching Adam Scott (if we can say he isn’t a big name)… and also Lucas Glover. Haven’t always been a Glover fan - but, over the last couple of years I’ve liked watching him play.
 
I'm bias but I love watching Joaquin.
 
Corey Connors, he’s not overly dramatic or emotional and he’s very solid Tee to Green imho and even though he has a few wins he isn’t necessarily a big name or fan favorite or picked much by many to win week in week out
 
Is Min Woo Lee considered a big name now? I enjoy watching him and Akshay Bhatia
 
Akshay

Lucas Glover

Russel Henley

Matt Fitz
 
Daniel Berger, Sam Burns, Will Zalatoris
 
The ladies on the LPGA, Epson and NCAA/college tours.
 
Willy Z I love to watch.
 
Back when he was in contention a good bit (and surprisingly he is today), I love watching Luke Donald. He's the player I'd love to emulate if I had a fraction of the skill.

Other than that I enjoy watching anyone with a good story or particularly potential first-time winners fighting for that life-changing win. Finally, I enjoy watching pretty much any collegiate or LPGA event.
 
All the guys who are not supposed to be there is the right answer.

I could watch Nelly swing a golf club all day, so effortless.
 
Peter Malnati.... I watched a YT video a while back (think it was Good Good) and he was their Pro for the Pro-Am. Couldn't have been more gracious, humble, etc. Really made me a fan of his. Him winning the Valspar was probably my 2nd favorite moment last season (Bryson US Open #1). He's a career grinder so it was awesome to see him on top.
 
This may not answer the question, but I really enjoy watching college golf.
 
I watch golf, regardless of tour or regardless of who is playing. I actually enjoy watching the Korn Ferry Tour.
 
I enjoy following the Amateurs in the majors
 
Trigger warning, but does Grant Horvat count? He plays golf on my TV and I probably enjoy watching him play more than most of the no-name droids on tour. To be fair tho, with the way coverage is on TV there could be some really entertaining players out there every weekend that never get screen time.

Me too!

I'm also partial to watching the pride of Wellesley, MA Michael Thorbjorsen
 
Sahith and Akshay I like watching
 
Justin Lower. He is one of the very few from my area that made the tour. Has won $1m+ each of the last two years.

Same boat, I watch much more YouTube golf than I do the tours.
 
Zalatoris is up there. Power and really any lefty.
 
Gary Woodland. Love watching his swing and he just seems like a good guy.
