Players
The greats and their swings — what makes them tick and what you can steal.
Adam Scott
A stylish, understated Australian whose swing has been a coaching template for decades; the first Australian to win the Masters.
Akshay Bhatia
Turned pro out of high school and battled through lean early years on mini-tours before becoming one of the tour's youngest multiple winners.
Angel Yin
One of the LPGA's longest hitters and most colorful personalities, unafraid to speak her mind and known for a fearless, attacking style.
Annika Sorenstam
Legendary pre-shot routine and mental discipline; first woman to shoot a competitive round of 59 (2001) and famously played in a PGA Tour event (2003 Colonial).
Ariya Jutanugarn
A former World No. 1 and two-time major champion known for raw power generated without a conventional driver in the bag.
Arnold Palmer
Charismatic, fearless risk-taker who attacked every pin instead of playing safe; built golf's first mass fanbase, 'Arnie's Army,' and defined the sport's 1960s TV boom.
Babe Zaharias
Olympic gold medalist in track and field (1932) before dominating women's golf; won 17 consecutive amateur events, a record never matched; founding member of the LPGA in 1950.
Ben Hogan
Obsessive practice regimen and surgical ball-striking; survived a near-fatal 1949 car crash and came back to win six more majors, capped by the 1953 'Triple Crown' season (3 majors from 6 starts).
Billy Casper
Widely considered the best putter of his era and one of the most underrated stars in golf history; won 27 Tour events between 1964-1970, more than Nicklaus and more than Palmer and Player combined in that span.
Bobby Jones
Only golfer ever to win the Grand Slam (U.S. Open, U.S. Amateur, Open Championship, British Amateur) in a single calendar year (1930); remained a lifelong amateur while regularly beating the best professionals.
Brooke Henderson
Canada's most decorated golfer, turning pro as a teenager and quickly becoming the winningest Canadian golfer, male or female, in history.
Brooks Koepka
A 'big-game hunter' whose intensity and physicality peak specifically at major championships more than any regular event.
Bryson DeChambeau
A self-styled 'golf scientist' who rebuilt his body and swing around physics and biomechanics; among the longest hitters in golf history.
Byron Nelson
Widely credited as the father of the modern golf swing; owns the still-unbroken 1945 record of 11 consecutive tournament wins and 18 wins in a single year.
Cameron Smith
A laid-back Australian whose putting and creativity around the greens are considered among the best of his generation.
Cameron Young
One of the tour's most explosive young ball-strikers, a heartbreak runner-up in multiple majors before his 2025 Wyndham Championship breakthrough win.
Celine Boutier
France's top female golfer and a multiple-time winner known for her calm, methodical approach and strong iron play with PXG equipment.
Charley Hull
A fan favorite known for her fearless, attacking style, outspoken personality, and status as one of the longest hitters in the women's game.
Collin Morikawa
Regarded as one of the purest iron players of his generation, with elite approach-play statistics and a trusted peeling fade shot shape.
Danielle Kang
A fiery competitor and major champion known for her outspoken confidence and consistency in her prime years.
Dustin Johnson
A generationally gifted athlete whose seemingly casual swing produces elite ball speed; calm, low-key demeanor even in contention.
Ernie Els
Nicknamed 'The Big Easy' for his tall frame and effortless-looking tempo; coach David Leadbetter called his timing one of the finest natural examples of overcoming apparent physical effort.
Fred Couples
Renowned for a swing so smooth and unhurried it looks almost lazy while still producing exceptional distance and ball-striking; battled chronic back injuries for much of his career yet remained a fan favorite for decades.
Gary Player
Only non-American to complete the career Grand Slam; a true global ambassador of golf who competed and won on six continents, famous for the line 'the harder you practice, the luckier you get.'
Gene Sarazen
First player to complete the career Grand Slam; hit the 'shot heard round the world,' a double eagle on the 15th at the 1935 Masters.
Greg Norman
Nicknamed 'the Great White Shark' for his blond hair, aggressive style and Australian roots; spent 331 weeks at World No. 1 but is equally remembered for painful major near-misses, including the 1996 Masters collapse to Nick Faldo.
Hannah Green
A steady major champion known for her calm demeanor and excellent iron play, part of a strong contingent of Australian women on tour.
Harry Vardon
Popularized the overlapping 'Vardon grip' still used by the vast majority of golfers today; part of golf's 'Great Triumvirate' with James Braid and J.H. Taylor.
Hideki Matsuyama
Japan's first men's major champion; known for meticulous, deliberate preparation and a devoted following back home.
Jack Nicklaus
Golf's greatest major championship record, built on relentless course management and mental composure rather than raw shot-making risk. Nicknamed 'the Golden Bear.'
