I like him but think he need to learn a little class. I know he's a country boy and loves hunting & fishing but when golfing and on TV.....take the chew out  Walking up to the announcer after stinking his put to win the Verizon Heritage at Harbour Town Golf Links, he leans over and spits  Last year he was doing an interview after the match and he had a spit stain from the chew running down his lip and chin  I like the Mossy Oak Cleveland Golf hats  |

The guy is not a golfer, really. He just happens to be very good at it, I've seen him in interviews and says he only golfs for just enough years to make sure he never has to work so he can hunt and fish as much as he wants!

Just like John Daly puffing butts walking between shots ;D EXACTLY Now look at where he stands among the other field of golfers, he's known as the "bad boy" of golf. As far as him just being an average Joe, I think all you need to do is listen to an interview to gather that bit of information about him The guy is not a golfer, really. He just happens to be very good at it, I've seen him in interviews and says he only golfs for just enough years to make sure he never has to work so he can hunt and fish as much as he wants! I would think that every PGA golfer on tour are out there playing to make enough money to enjoy whatever they enjoy doing  If he's out there just for that, that's wonderful! I wish him luck but it doesn't meant he can't show a little class. As I said, I like the guy but what's next from him? Are we going to see him in the middle of an interview, leaning over and launching a snot rocket Pick his nose and wipe it on his pants Think about it for just second, what other show or sports event do the people chewing and spit on camera or right before an interview? Even in hunting videos you don't see Will Primos, the Mad boys, Micheal Wadell chewing and spitting tobacco on camera |

Problem is he walks off the course with it in his mouth, how exactly do you hide it? Can't just spit it onto the ground etc. Smokers, and lots of golfers are smokers, can just drop it during the interview, then pick it up. If you go to a PGA (or LPGA) event, you'd be suprised how many are smoking away walking the course, but you never see it on TV.
Most golfers are there for the career, Weekly is only there to make money so he can play a few years down the road. He's been quoted as saying his goal is 5-7 years, then retire, he's not in it for the long haul.

Just don't quite get yeah I'm not saying smoking or dipping doesn't happen in the PGA or that golfers shouldn't smoke or chew on tour! they are all human and can do what ever floats their boat It's just some pretty bad taste no matter if your only doing it for 2 or 4 season just for bait money or for a career to be walking up to a nationally televised prompt and spitting out mouth full of brown tobacco spit. |
