Just taking a survey on who is your one vote for the most hated golfer of all time. This should be interesting.

****UPDATE*** Change "hated" to most disliked, sorry if saying hated offended anyone.

I'm pleasantly surprised at the list so far. Keep em coming, Thanks.

Probably Jack. Arnie's Army figured him as the devil.

Nick Faldo was my all-time No. 1 most hated. When he stole the Masters from Raymond Floyd (and really Jack, though Jack faded pretty hard on Sunday) in 1990, I wanted Faldo to die.

Of course, now I love him. He's funny as hell and too honest for his own good. But from 1989 to 1997 or so, Faldo was enemy No. 1.

Angel Cabrera if thats how you spell it. Something about his whole persona I can't stand.



At last years US Open, I was standing by the 3rd tee box on Sunday watching every group come by, we were less than 10' away from the guys teeing it up. Everybody was ooooing and aaaaaaing when a player would tee off just because we were so close. Angel hit a 3 metal off the tee and the results weren't that good, he hooked it into the rough about 240 down over the gulch. A lady did her sigh and then started laughing to her group she was with just because the ball was killed. Angel took it as if she was laughing at his result, which resulted in him giving her a death stare for the next 2-3 minutes while the rest of the group teed off and even made a comment as he walked by in her area in his native language~The lady didn't know any better, she was just watching the guys tee off. This was the same tee box that Dustin tried cutting the corner and ended up with a lost ball and in the end would end his chance for the Open with a 81~

I would have made a comment back to him in my native language (English) which I bet he would have understood! He would not have liked it, but he sure as hell would have understood it.

Not a Cabrera fan either. Didn't like how he shrugged at Campbell and Perry in The Masters playoff when they got knocked out of it. Plus he gets pissed off all the time like you mentioned Gary. Worse than Tiger's emotions perhaps.

Anybody notice that a lot of foreign golfers are appearing in these posts?

That being said..... I can't say I "hate" any particular golfer, but there are plenty that annoy the crap out of me.

1) Sergio Garcia - Hit the g*ddam ball already!
2) Rory Sabbatini - See #1
3) Colin Montgomery - You play golf for a living....why so surly?
4) Jesper Parnivik - Was a d*ck to me when I asked for an autograph (I was 12 at the time)

I don't necessarily hate Tiger, I dislike the media attention he gets. He is the Duke Basketball of the PGA tour.

Well said. Now that you mention it, yes, most foreign golfers. Very arrogant and cocky. As far as Tiger. I know he catches alot of crap over the coverage he gets whether he's in contention or not. Just remember Stracka family....he didn't ask for that. I'm sure he would perfer to get as much attention as a Derek Lamely or someone. Its all about the media, thinking what the fans want. Its not Tigers idea. So you have to give Tiger a pass for that and blame the media and the networks, not him~

Tiger asked for it. He won 14 majors. :)

The media is incredibly lazy and unoriginal. CBS and others show shots of Tiger firing a crowd-pleasing 74 on Sunday because of their laziness ... they can't help themselves.

It will end when Tiger retires.
