Patrick Reed

Patrick Reed is one of the most polarizing golfers of his generation, and honestly that's part of what makes him compelling to watch. His 2018 Masters win was a gutsy front-running performance under enormous pressure, and his Ryder Cup record earned him that 'Captain America' tag for a reason, he loves the heat of match play. He's never been one to court popularity, and controversies have followed him, but you can't deny the competitive fire. When the stakes are highest, Reed tends to play his best golf, and that fearlessness is rare even at the top of the sport.
