In golf it has to be Ben Curtis and in tennis I would Go with Michael Chang.

Tennis has had worse. Petr Korda and Thomas Johansson. Somebody has to have been worse than Curtis in golf.

Chang made four GS finals, won seven Masters titles, and was a top 10 player for many years. The worst player to win a GS in tennis was Mark Edmondson. Or you could go with a number of other players who won the Australian Open in the '70s and early '80s. The Australian Open used to have ATP 500-type fields back then because nobody wanted to travel all the way down to Australia in Christmas time. So you had a lot of mediocre players going deep into the Australian Open back in those days.

You must be unfamiliar with the name Shaun Micheel.

YOu don't know shite about tennis at all.
I can give you several worse than Chang, but I'll start w/ Gaston Gaudio.

What about Todd Hamilton? I haven't heard of him since he won the British in 2004.

Beemer, Orville Moody, Ian Baker Finch (once he lost his swing), Jack Fleck

I think y'all are taking this personal. Obviously these guys are "good." Lawrie is the correct answer. That's not saying he wasn't good. He's a pro.

Chang was an exciting player to watch, gutsy guy.

I agree with Shaun Micheel and Rich Beem, but also throw Wayne Grady in there.

That shwatzel kid that won the masters couple years ago isn't a name you hear often.
