What are some examples of golf jerks?

Over the course of this list, we’ll meet several kinds of golf jerks: there are the caddy-abusers, the downright asinine fools, and the sore losers, just to name a few. Pat Perez is a prime example of the latter, known for profane outbursts and club-over-knee temper tantrums in a game that prides itself on near-Victorian levels of decorum. At the 2011 Reno-Tahoe open, for example, he needed a dressing down from his father over his loud use of foul language. As the tourney neared its end and Perez missed an eight foot birdie putt, rather than congratulate his playing partner on his par and likely victory, Perez decided to stamp off in a fury, remove a water bottle from his pocket and ceremoniously slam it on the grass.

Is golf a personal game?

But in addition to being an extremely personal, meditative game, golf is also a haven for entitlement, condescension, mistreatment and smugness. It’s easy to see why: a country club membership is many thousands of dollars a year, a good set of clubs can run you upwards of $1,000, and even playing a public course can quickly become an affair costing hundreds of dollars once fees, carts, shoes and food are included. Those who have the time and money to play golf from a young age seriously enough to make the professional circuit are almost always of the upper crust. So it’s less than surprising to hear about golfers treating their caddies like verbal punching bags, ignoring young fans, denying knowledge of egregious performance enhancing drug use, or even systematically cheating on spouses with any adult entertainer who crosses into their field of view. The life of a professional athlete is hardly as easy as the casual fan would make it out to be. But these PGA Pros are the repeat offenders whose antics can make the richest, most privileged sport outside of polo seem a little trashy.

Can you anchor a long putter?

Only a very few players still use the long putter, if you can' t anchor it, it doesn' t do you much good.
