He was well known in his prime even by people who knew nothing about golf, and then his life turned into a tabloid headline. Also, part of it is the reality that there's no other player who is nearly as well known as him to the casual golf fan that they can use to hype the tournament instead. Below is the list of current top eight golfers. I like golf and watch it a lot, but these guys are eight shades of boring. DJ is probably the only one known outside of the golf world, at least in the US, and that's because he had his own tabloid moment. The good news is that golf broadcasts tend to focus just on the people at the top of the leader board once the tournament starts. Assuming Tiger drops off quickly given his lack of recent playing time and his admission that walking 18 holes is going to be difficult for him, the broadcasters will likely stop focusing on him by Friday. Scottie Scheffler Jon Rahm Collin Morikawa Viktor Hovland Patrick Cantlay Cameron Smith Justin Thomas Dustin Johnson GOOOD CALL STEVIEZEE!!!
