[modelm]

Simple challenge.. How far can get you get down the official world golf rankings before you see a name you're unfamiliar with?

I only made it to #37.. Matt Wallace, thought I'd get past 100!

[b.helts]

Made it to Lucas Bjerregard

[00steven]

Yep 48

[bscinstnct]

LUCAS BJERREGAARD!

 

Moving up very nicely, I see.

[Hawkeye77]

Only got to 2 - nobody talks about this Koepka guy.

[MtlJeff]

yeah i don't know who Matt Wallace is either. I feel like they should do some "uncle drew" style prank where they bring him to a course in a costume and he shoots like 63 with some chumps

 

I don't know Lucas Bjjerragaaaard either.

 

I always thought Eddie Pepperell would be a good name for like James Bond's butler, or something like that.

 

There's a french dude named Alexander Levy. I feel like it should be Alexandre Levie with accents on both e's

[cdnglf]

JAZZ JANEWATTANANOND

 

Ok, that isn’t actually true. I just wanted to say JAZZ JANEWATTANANOND

[aarbro]

Made it to Lucas Bjerregard

That's where I got to as well. Shugo Imahira was my next stop.

 

Given time differences here in NZ, I watch a lot of Euro Tour. Thought I'd do better.

[benno_r]

As someone who watches the Euro tour, i had to tap out at 60 - Shugo Imahira.

 

 

[MtlJeff]

JAZZ JANEWATTANANOND

 

Ok, that isn't actually true. I just wanted to say JAZZ JANEWATTANANOND

 

I always wonder what Jim Nantz's call would be if guys won the Masters, that's how i judge great names....

 

It could be like .....You can't spell "won at AN" without JANEWATTANANOND!

 

I should write for CBS

A name unlike any other?

[mcputter]

I would have only made it to #36- Haotong Li if it wasn't for the guy's penalty last week.

 

Eddie Pepperell- isn't he a horse racing jockey?

[anth]

You guys really need to watch the Euro Tour. Matt Wallace won 3 times last year and was unlucky to miss out on RC selection.

 

And he has a sweet swing! I believe he is coached by the hirsute one - Robert Rock.

 

Wait, y’all probably don’t know who that is either...

[anth]

Having said that I couldn’t pick Andrew Putnam out of a line-up.

 

So that’s me done at 47!

[bladehunter]

Made it to # 79. Jazz. Wtf ? I have no clue who that guy is. Only jazz I ever heard of is DJ Jazzy Jeff.

[MattyO1984]

I had to do it twice because as soon as I saw boring Justin Rose there at number 1, I fell asleep.

 

Thereafter, Shugo at #60 did it for me as well.

 

It wonder how far any of us would get with the Ladies top 100...

[MarkFromTheUK]

60

[Garush34]

Made it to 60 as well, thought I would at least get out of the top 100 since I'm familiar with the European tour and PGA tour.

[rukahs]

Lol Patrick Reed played 62 events to Tiger's 21 and TW is still higher than him :lol:

[MidMOGolfer]

36. Haotong Li

[compton1977]

Made it to 60 as well, thought I would at least get out of the top 100 since I'm familiar with the European tour and PGA tour.

 

Yep, agreed

you americans might know him better as Mike Wallace who made an ace at the PGA

[Dave D]

111 for me, Yuki Inamori

[Ferguson]

Unfamiliar: 37

 

Unsubstantiated: 29

Unsportsmanlike: 28

Unsophisticated: 9

Unbreakable: 11

Unhealthful: 15

Undeveloped: 14

Unimpassioned: 65

Unpalatable: 33

Unprecedented: 13

[Lamb]

Made it to Jason Day.

[Darth Putter]

Shugo Imahira was the leader on the Japanese Order of Merit in 2018. He got a Special Invite to play in The Masters and also has a spot in the 2019 British Open.

 

John Catlin at #113 would be the first one I can't remember the face. He's an American that won three times on the Asian Tour last year.

 

Wait, now that I've done my research and know who he is, how much further down the list do I need to go?

[conorgolf22]

Pretty big golf "nerd"....I made it to Shugo Imahira then Justin Harding

[MidwestGolfBum]

Made it to # 79. Jazz. Wtf ? I have no clue who that guy is. Only jazz I ever heard of is DJ Jazzy Jeff.

 

Thats where I made it to, as well. Outside of the Nordea Masters, he hasn't really had many made cuts or high finishes on the Euro Tour, so I guess I'm not shocked to have not really heard the name much.

[80sFredriksson]

52

[thesaxemachine]

55 Tom Wallace
