I worked the 1986 PGA Championship as a standard bearer and met several players that year. I have also been to several PGA tournaments by attending the World Series at Firestone and The Memorial at Murfield.

Some the of the new players on tour, I have not met, but here is my list of players I meet.

Cool:

Fred Couples
Davis Love III
Nick Faldo
Peter Jacobsen - Gave me a sandwich and drink during the last round of the 1986 PGA Championship
Ray Floyd - Gave me his golf ball that day
Arnold Palmer - Allowed me to take several pictures with him
Tom Kite - Also allowed to take several pictures as well.
Rocco Mediate
Hal Sutton - Gave me a great Iron Play Tip.
Jay Haas
Mark O'Meara - Great Guy
Curtis Strange - A lot do not like him, but was cool with me.
Tom Purtzer
Jose Maria Olazabal
John Daly
Tom Lehman

and many...many...more

Douches:

Lee Trevino - Douche Bag, especially to the kids.
Ian Woosnam
Bob Tway

Outside of that, not too many were too bad

Vijay Singh- treats women like shite(cultural behavior), to the point that Byron Nelson had to tell him to straighten his arse up when attending his tourney, just a couple of years before he passed.

Sergio Garcia- had person assigned to him as an aid during the Nelson, as all the pros did, and had them running to do errands at 1-2 a.m.(booze). Also trashed his rental residence in 5 days.

he comes across as a dick on TV, so it's no surprise that Lordy Byron told him to clean up his act.

Edit: Tiger would be my choice as well. He is such a robot.
I'd bet he's much different off the course. I'd bet there's a reason why most of the guys on the tour actually like him.

Sergio was awful back in his heyday, he reeled it in when the PGA told him to get his act together.

I have talked several times to most of them, had dinner with 5 or 6, talked to two this week, have interviewed all of them except Watson and Trevino. How about you!

I will add the Faldo is a great guy and one of the absolute biggest douches is Woosnam. Also, David Toms is really cool. Have talked to him at the Masters played with him in a scramble, etc.

The people saying fowler are probably just real conservative redneck type guys who hate on a young kid who's kinda stylish.

I'd say Sabbatini, but at the US Open practice round Zach Johnson signed one kids hat, and he was walking down the line with it as he signed it bypassing everyone else, and as soon as he finished signing it he just threw it over his shoulder into the crowd. The kid must have been like 8 or 9 and was bawling his eyes out until someone gave him his hat back.

He might be, but it isn't because

He signs autographs plenty of times. Just because you didn't see him signing when you were working doesn't mean he doesn't do it.

Also, he hasn't played in NOLA since 2006, and he hasn't played in Memphis in at least the last 2 years.
