The Masters Golf
21 Answers
I've just watched some great golf played by the most miserable people you could wish to meet in sport. Very little emotion; no interaction with the fans. The barely noticeable acknowledgements from the players who look like they're saying "don't bother". Ian Poulter said it was great playing with Tiger Woods. They had some great fun. Well, it must have been off camera. I never saw them talking or laughing. You might say the players are concentrating, so, don't want to be distracted, which may be true but why do they give the impression that they're bored out of their tree? Oh, another thing. Have you noticed that Augusta don't have spectators? Or a crowd? Or fans? Or an audience? Or customers? No sireee. The snotty gits only have "Patrons". And snotty gits they are, for sure. Even the Captain of The R&A couldn't get in there. Apart from that though, everythings great! :o)

I've watched Tiger Woods in action and he is steely serious. seen him and followed him round for a few holes at the British Open when he was on top form and he was quite brilliant, but ice cold.
Very few of the pro golfers engage with each other or the crowd, but when they do, they are usually unlikely winners! Jiminez for example, popular character.

Nick Faldo scowled his way to 3 Masters titles. Lee Trevino smiled his way to almost every title bar the Masters. Each to their own, i guess. Their facial expressions do not alter their prowess on the course and, as it is that i watch it for, then (plus seeing how my bets are doing), then it's ok by me.
It's a major, of course they are not going to be relaxed. There is so much pressure and expectation and they are competing against each other, I'm sure when they play a lesser tournament they are more relaxed. As for patrons, America always call fans/audience patrons, not just in golf but in most sports.
murraymints; I don't know anyone who remembers the great man smiling his way to his numerous victories. In his own words; "For me to be a hard bag of mails on the golf course was generated for the purpose of being a successful golfer. I didn't necessarily make friends. They call it 'performance-mode' nowadays. That's a great quality, isn't it?" "But people would see me like that and didn't like it. I was focused, obsessed. But what was an enviable quality on the golf course, was seen as not such a great quality off the course." In truth, Faldo was a singular, headstrong, blinkered golfer who, on the course, rarely communicated beyond a handshake at the beginning and end of a round. Had he been the happy go lucky type, he wouldn't have won a thing.
Ian James Poulter and Tiger Woods both are an English professional golfer. Concentration is the main part of golf. If you laugh or talk in the middle of the game then your mind will be stuck in there and you can't achieve your goal. Every professional golfer wants to achieve their goals. Look, If you concentrate enough in the game then your brain doesn't work on other things like talking and laughing. Our brain cant do several things at one time, That's why they don't laugh and don't talk. Btw I've been golfing for a couple of months, I often learn new things about golf.
