My Take
What grabs me about Paul Azinger isn't just the twelve PGA Tour wins or the 1993 PGA Championship, though that resume is formidable. It's the arc of resilience. A man who lived in the world top-ten for nearly 300 weeks, then fought through cancer to win Comeback Player of the Year in 2000, shows me that his real talent was endurance, not just ball-striking. I find his second act as a sharp, candid TV analyst just as compelling. To me, Azinger represents the quiet kind of greatness, the sort measured less by trophies than by the refusal to quit.
