I adore Rickie! He's definitely one of my top three favorite golfers. This video made me tear up. Since becoming a girl dad last August, I've realized that while I take my golf seriously (sometimes a little too seriously), seeing my wife and daughter off the course makes the score of what I shot melt away.
It is more than golf, because he sure aint popular because of his golf game. Dude has become a d list player since he became uber famous. Probably the most disappointing golfer in 20 years.
The way in which he conducts himself is why I’m a fan of Rickie. The connection with his grandfather and how he gives back. And with his struggles with the last few years. He still conducts himself in a great way. It’s easy when it’s going well. TRUE CHARACTER IS WHEN IS HARD!!!!!
A classy gentleman who has his priorities straight, whether he’s first in the world rankings or 501st. He’s been my favorite for years, and Jordan Spieth and Jason Day fill out my top three. Beyond Rickie being a fantastic golfer and a seemingly fantastic husband, father, and human being, have you noticed over the years how many times he stayed to greet the eventual winner at majors and other important events? That will always stand out to me.
Probably one of the best liked players. Remember the 2017 Players'? What did he hit 4 birdies in a row at the 17th island hole? He did not win, but he gave it a good run.
Ricky's legacy will always be a great husband and father and like the rest of us golfers will continue to seek perfection in this darn game. There is just something about a ball and a stick and trying to control them at the same time.....lol
He competes as hard as anyone but as soon as the last putt drops he congratulates the winner and seems to be involved enough to know what’s going on with all the tour players. What he said to WC after losing to him was one of countless examples of the exact right thing to do.
You gotta get back to wearing the bright colors, helps your confidence and enjoyment, try more purple and pink, lime green, light blue, etc. of course, ORANGE!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
You just want someone like Rickie to be your best mate. Been a fan for a long time and will be for many more years. Love seeing this side of him, just makes you like him even more!
