What hockey player would you like to go golfing with?

Question

Hockey players are naturally decent golfers. It is a known joke that players hit the course after they are out of the playoffs.

What player would you like to play a round with, why, and what course would you like to play on?

If you are not up to date on hockey, what other athlete would be fun to do a round with?

Answer 1

Probably my all time favourite hockey player Wade Belak. Now that he is a Floridite (?) we could go on a tour working our way north through Saint Augustine stopping at Augusta,  Pinehurst and Latrobe Pa. With his size, dazzling smile and strong fists we could probably play at all these invite only courses and have a lot of laughs.

If he brought his Scuba tanks we could also pick up a few golf balls from the water hazards as well.

Along the way he could tell me what life was like living rent free in Eddie Belfour's house.

Answer 2

mark savard hes a member at  a club where i live and hes a very good  golfer and voted the best  NHL  player who plays golf and is best friends with stewart cink but most of all hes a down to earth type of person and very easy to talk with

Answer 3

I don't do regular golf, so I'll play mini-golf with Marty Turco.

Answer 4

sidney crosby

Answer 5

Ovechkin- he seems to be fun and if I remember correctly he played golf for the first time last fall.  Our skill level should be similar on the first nine before his natural athleticism takes over.

Actually if I remember the story correctly it was his first time golfing but he may have made an hole in one.

yep he did it- here's da link (using ma best english fer Joe)

Joe: a link is where we play da golf in Scotland, and with my game the holes better be linked by something other than water or I am going to lose a lot of balls.  I have been told my problem is LOFT    (Lack Of F'n Talent).

Answer 6

Brett Hull... he's an accomplished golfer, I've been mistaken for him in bars, and if I have my choice of courses, Pebble Beach or Augusta have to be the tops...

Answer 7

Happy Gilmore

Answer 8

WaYne GRetzky

Answer 9

I would want to play with Ron Wilson, the coach of the sharks, and Jeremy Roenick. Man talk about players. Ron Wilson is a +3 Handicap and JR is a scratch player. Not to includ the charisma of both guys. Man that would be fun.

Answer 10

Any one of the enforcers. See how calm they really get when I get under their skin. "I don't know, it looks like it's breaking right, not left." And then it breaks left. lol

Answer 11

I would love to play with Wayne Gretzky

Answer 12

I don't know who you are but ending a question with a preposition 3 times?Tsk tsk.

Homes-I am no way an english major but I guess I would have said "If you had the chance to golf with a hockey player who would it be?" or for us boys in Philly it would go"Yo,golf wif hockey player who?"LOL

If it makes you feel better I  also had underprivileged public schooling as well but I did stay at a Holiday Inn express last night.

Answer 13

Mario Lemieux...he's a member at Oakmont so I'd be happy to be his guest.

Answer 14

wayne grexy because he is a good golfer

Answer 15

Answer 16

I would have to disagree that hockey players are natural golfers...most hockey players that i have played golf with have a very low, inside out swing with a flat plane, all of which contribute to low snap-hook left into the trees or out of bounds.  

I would choose an athlete from a different sport.  It would have to be Tony Romo.  He is a scratch player, so he wouldnt slow me down, he seems to be a good guy, probably lots of fun to go golfing with, and maybe he would bring Jessica Simpson along, which would be real nice.

You know what, to h**l with Tony Romo...I would rather just play with Jessica Simpson.
