    Golfers you hate or dislike

    1. Stewart Cink - This annoying 'bald' man cannot be forgiven for denying Tom Watson Or Lee Westwood a Major Championship. He must be the most dislikeable man in golf.

    2. Jim Furyk - Another annoying 'bald' man, Jim is surely one of the most annoying golfers of all time, the 5 steps back before he putts out routine is ridiculous. Who can stand Jim Furyk?

    3. Dustin Johnson, yeah do he can hit the ball miles, but he must be one of the most boring men in golf, lets hope he cannot win the USPGA.

    4. Monty. A moody and unfaithful man, who blames everything except himself for his failings; a trait which i despise. Has underachieved for years by not winning a major.

    5. Sergio Garcia. Over-rated golfer with a temper, whose popularity is based solely on one major performance (his duel with Tiger) and his Ryder cup performances. Tinkers way too much with his swing, shows he does not have the mentality to win big.

    Hats off to Stewart Cink



    For those that haven't seen the US Ryder Cup team interview, take a look at a true gentleman.... Stewart Cink.

    BBC

    US Ryder Cup teams are often accused of not having the team spirit and cameraderie that is all too apparent in nearly every European team. However, I was surprised that none of Hunter Mahan's fellow team mates spoke up during his interview when he was so obviously distraught after losing his match.

    The fact that Cink spoke up afterwards, in defence of Mahan, shows the measure of the man. Despite being an ardent European fan, I have the utmost respect for Cink as a golfer, and now even more so as a man. It is such displays of integrity that makes golf stand out from all other sports played professionally, and serves to re-inforce my love of both playing and watching the game.

    Stewart Cink, I salute you.

    Watson & Cink shoot up world rankings

    Following their playoff for the Claret Jug at Turnberry this weekend, former number 33 Cink and 1374 Watson moved to 9 and 104 respectively.

    Cink will hope to move on from his first major and claim more - following the example perennial also-ran Padraig Harrington set in 2007. However it's more likely he'll join the ranks of Ben Curtis and Lucas Glover in the "nice guys who won a major" category. Sorry, Stew.

    The world rankings in golf are somewhat farcical - it's basically a case of who can get to number 2 behind Tiger, or number 3 behind Phil these days.

    New world rankings:

    1 Tiger Woods 10.82pts

    2 Phil Mickelson 8.53

    3 Paul Casey 6.60

    4 Kenny Perry 6.21

    5 Sergio Garcia 6.02

    6 Steve Stricker 5.88

    7 Henrik Stenson 5.88

    8 Geoff Ogilvy 5.74

    9 Stewart Cink 5.04

    10 Jim Furyk 5.01

    11 Vijay Singh 4.84

    12 Martin Kaymer 4.80

    13 Camilo Villegas 4.69

    14 Lee Westwood 4.65

    15 Sean O'Hair 4.39

    16 Padraig Harrington 4.33

    17 Anthony Kim 4.22

    18 Robert Karlsson 4.21

    19 Ian Poulter 3.97

    20 Lucas Glover 3.94
