 Topic: Major Champions Poll
Posted: July 03 2012 at 08:45 |
This is a golf poll so everyone try to contain their excitement.
The last 13 major champions have been first timers. Many have them are also young guns who are considered "the future of golf", a couple have already fallen off the map, one shouldn't have won (fu Stewart Cink), and one is an elder statesman whose win was a feel good story for the world of golf. Anyway, the question is: which of these 13 first-time major winners will be the first to become a two-time major champion? Feel free to make predictions about the futures of these players.

Forgot to add "Nobody: they'll all be stuck at 1 forever" as an option but it seems impossible that players like McIlroy, Simpson, Watson, Kaymer, and Oosthuizen will go long before collecting more majors.

Lazy usually-rich guy walks around hitting a little ball with a stick followed by a little car just in case he gets tired. Call it a sport.

Rory McIlroy may never win another major. He shouldn't have one he did. The U.S. Open conditions of the course he won
on were atrocious. The course was
shortened and the greens were softened.
Another indication of the conditions, twenty golfers came in under
par. Twenty under par for a U.S. Open
unheard of. There had only been four
golfers under par for the last five U.S. Opens (prior to that one) combined and
for this one you had 20.

I thoroughly agree. If golf ceased to exist I would not care, nor would I notice.
