The World’s been robbed because of another archaic golfing rule

I understand the rules are there for a reason, but sometimes the rules should be broken.

Like, for instance, when breaking the rules gives us what everyone wants to see.

Alright, Y.E. Yang probably doesn’t want the rules changed, and nothing against him, but there’s probably only a few dozen people outside of South Korea who does not want to see Tiger Woods and Padraig Harrington paired together Sunday. And I’d bet that most of those other people are fellow golfers who would rather Tiger was home so that they could possibly win this tournament.

26 Best Golfers to Win Only One Major Since World War II

I am going with the same criteria as I did for the 25 worst golfers to win a major championship, with one change: I am making it a top-26.

Why 26? It’s simple. Steve Elkington is not in the same class as these other golfers, but his accomplishments make him appear to be. While everyone else arguably underachieved winning only one major, Elkington overachieved. But unlike every other overachiever in golf, Elkington time and time again stepped his game up in prestigious events. That deserves a mention, and thus he makes this list.
