I picked Phil Mickelson back in the day cause of his first name. He was also a Callaway guy. I play Callaway drivers and fairway woods. He plays fearless. Doesn't lay up much. And he played at ASU where my brother was working on his masters.
I root for Americans to win the US Open and the British Open. Not rooting for Rory this afternoon.
I did play Cleveland Irons, but do play Cleveland wedges, so. brand
Not many players use Mizuno irons, but I do
Maybe the state they were born in or the college they played for.
I root for Zach Johnson cause he's from Iowa and played at Drake.
Maybe you were a Nike fan because of Air Jordan. Root for the guy with the Nike hat and shirt.
Or just root for someone cause your buddy doesn't like them.
