Seve for me. Loved his enthusiasm and competitiveness.
 
Cam Smith and I don't know why. I guess I just love his game and his vibe.
 
No one saying Player? I’m shocked…or not. 🤣

For me, probably Viktor. He’s newer, sure, but I like him a hell of a lot more than most of the internationals, and I wasn’t watching golf for the Seve era.
 
Miguel Angel Jimenez... love his game and overall approach to the game.

Seve and Jimenez.
 
Probably Cam Smith for me.
 
Jason Day. Have always been a big fan.

Need to have a chat with him about this Malbon nonsense though.
 
Ernie
 
Nick Price was a favorite in the 90's. I loved anyone who beat Norman for a stretch. Norman was so annoyingly cocky.
 
Have to say Sir Bob Charles, although I didn't get to see him play, he was so well known at home for winning The Open in 1963, but also being the first lefty to win a major.

Only 2 kiwis have won a major, & Sir Bob was a much more elegant player than Michael Campbell.
 
YE Yang.
 
Cam Smith
 
Seve and Georgia Hall
 
Abe Ancer
 
Darren Clarke, what a character
Before that, probably Greg Norman.
Currently, Cam Smith
I wasn't that into golf when Seve was firing, but i remember he wasn't well liked by the US fans because he was kind of a D*^K

Annika.
 
Chi Chi, he was a regular in Memphis back in the 60s. He was a joy to watch in person. He weighed about 125 lbs., was long off the tee and as good as Player in the sand. His putter wasn't. Isn't Puerto Rico part of the United States though?

Langer then, I'm German and he's almost my age. Amazing golfer
 
Have always liked Rory from day 1

Sergio was fun for a bit
