May update him when I learn something more about Mr. 39 – Patrick Cover– Neither obviously tackleable nor obviously untackleable. 38 – Simon Forsström – Swedes are shifty but Simon isn’t all that big. 37 – Justin Rose – If he wasn’t a sturdy human being I think he’d be higher on this list solely because of the Mastercard “ooo, brain freeze” commercial. He’s a new man and quickly rising the ranks of least tackleable. 36 – Matt Fitzpatrick – Fitzy lost the braces. – One of the elder statesmen in the field, but the real OBJ has some serious gravitas to him. 34 – Justin Suh – Smaller guy but the guy has some serious leg strength. 33 – Andrew Putnam – Too nice of a guy to tackle with any sort of veracity. ![]() 32 – Collin Morikawa – Seems like he should be tailormade for LACC this week, but I do worry about his lingering back issues. 31 – Min Woo Lee – Has more than enough power to outlast the initial hit. 30 – Wenyi Ding – Still a teenager, I think his agility keeps him higher on this list than his build would suggest. 29 – Rickie Fowler – Much like every media question he’s ever been asked, I think Rickie could sidestep a few tackles. He’d be tougher to take down than you’d originally think. 28 – Emiliano Grillo – Seems pretty squirrely and fiery. 27 – Romain Langasque – A guy that strikes me as someone who could get dirty and mud it up, but at the end of the day, I don’t think he’d try too hard. 26 – Michael Kim – A fighter, to be sure, but not enough to avoid the takedown forever. 25 – Stewart Cink – Similar to Kuchar, he’s a big frame to take down but he is almost eligible for the PGA Tour Champions. 24 – Paul Haley – Grew up playing sports with Matthew Stafford so I’m guessing he learned a thing or two about getting tackled. 23 – Francesco Molinari – Another guy who could be higher on this list but if he’s got any residual olive oil on him he could be slippery. 22 – Brian Harman – Small, yes, but he’s got that Georgia dawg in him. No.21 – Seamus Power – My only worry about Power is that he’s Irish and if he played any sort of rugby this could be a serious mistake. 20 – Matt Kuchar – Big body to take down but he’s not mobile whatsoever. 19 – Eric Cole – Would be higher on this list but the freedom that he has in his ankle mobility because of the high-rise joggers allows him to avoid tacklers. Issue is that he’s back healthy and can put up a real fight now. 18 – Brooks Koepka – A guy who might be in the top 5 of some peoples’ lists. Too bad he won’t see the blindside hit coming. 17 – Patrick Cantlay – Another great fit for LACC and very familiar with the course. He’s also in pretty good form for LACC this week, so that’s good. 16 – Tommy Fleetwood – Finno might provide some good protection for his guy but I think Tommy is pretty gettable. 15 – Jason Day – He’s had too many injuries to fight back. 14 – Abraham Ancer – Have you seen the way this guy runs? I don’t think there would be much trouble getting him to the ground. 13 – Christian Cavaliere – His name is too close to Kristin Cavallari and we all know how that situation with my guy Jay Cutler ended up. 12 – Sergio Garcia – Welcome back to the PGA Tour, Sergio! I do think he’d put up a good fight though. 11 – Justin Thomas – I’m not one who hates on JT too much, but there is enough of a quorum for him to be listed pretty high on this list. 10 – Kevin Streelman – There’s nothing particularly irksome about Streelman, but those backwards sunglasses are enough to make the top 10. 9 – Joaquin Niemann – Tall enough but pretty wiry and collapsable. 8 – Charley Hoffman – Would someone protect this man from getting tackled already? 7 – Keegan Bradley – You can only handle so many shifty movements before you have to tackle someone. ![]() Especially now that he dropped the excess chocolate milk weight. 6 – Bryson DeChambeau – Again, self explanatory. 5 – Tyrrell Hatton – I’m not sure if Hatton is really all that tackleable, but I think he’d have a lot of fun with it so he ranks pretty high. Maldovan isn’t an intimidating figure but plays significantly outside his frame. ![]() 4 – Maxwell Moldovan – One of the nicer people you will ever meet, Mr. 3 – Yuto Katsuragawa – My good man Yuto comes in at No. 1 – Phil Mickelson – I don’t think I need to explain this one. Open Edition – Most Tackleable Golfers at LACC Adam Hadwin has already been tackled so he was removed from this list. For instance, Corey Pavin would be very tackleable, Andre the Giant wouldn’t, etc. Now, this ranking is based on one of two criteria: either they are a general menace to society and in need of a good tackling or they are relatively tackleable in the height and weight department. Given recent events and the Adam Hadwin incident at the RBC Canadian Open, I present… Normally, major championship WOWgrs rank the field by way of who I think has the best chance of winning.
