Sixth all-time in Euro Tour wins, has 10 top-ten finishes in majors and finished top-ten at least twice in every major except the Masters, which he won. Don't think he's in this discussion.

Beem and Hamilton are interesting choices. Perhaps them.

Correct. Wish we could include the players. Perks.

Bingo. This is the mother fricking answer, at least in the past 10 years or so. Rich Beem sucks.

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


He has 2 PGA Tour wins, the 2004 British Open and the 2004 Honda Classic earlier that same year. However, he's won about a dozen times on the Asian PGA Tour. Micheel and Beem are worse than Hamilton.

Orville Moody won the 1969 US Open, and that was his only PGA Tour win. However, he spent most of his early life in the military, and didn't start playing professional golf until he was in his 30s. He also won several Senior Tour events, so I think Beem and Micheel are worse.

No Michael Campbell yet? That guy has been garbage since he left Pinehurst.

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 wore ankle weights playing tennis. It destroyed his knees.

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