Saw Fuzzy’s ace at Glen Oaks. I was sitting under the tv tower. Hung up for 11 seconds, and God blew on it.
I always loved his casual double thumbs up when it went in
No you didn't
I followed Fuzzy’s career very closely. He was one of the longest drivers of his era, although in those days Norman was best driver of the ball in the world. The difference was, in my opinion, that when Fuzzy had a chance to win, he often won. Whereas with Norman, and all those chances, something strange would happen. Fuzzy was a helluva player, but a character. Only he can say how he felt on the inside, but on the outside he exuded charm and nonchalance. That must be tough to compete against under so much pressure. Of course he cared, but you would hardly know it. Won the Masters as a rookie with a local caddie and won the U.S. Open head to head on a brutal course against the world #1. The pride of southern Indiana. Good on you Frank Urban Zoeller!
I met Fuzzy Zoeller at the Greater Milwaukee Open in the early 2000's.... Very cordial & charming gentleman. Very funny guy. It was a pleasure.
No you didn't
One of the most entertaining and naturally talented golfers of all time. Lee Trevino is another one. Playing by feel instead of trying to develope a mechanically perfect swing. It proves there is more than one method that can produce incredible results.
Huh
1979. LA Open post-round. Fuzzy and his caddy, no one else around at the range. I was a teen a teen with my friend: Fuzzy told us dirty jokes and hit trick shots for us (uncanny--because of his casual demeanor, people underestimated his skill) and we were in heaven. In retrospect, it's so unfortunate that he's most remembered for the stupid joke he told, because he was such a great guy, and a far better human being than Woods the GOAT or Norman the GCOT. But real people often fall prey to the self-righteous.
I absolutely hate Father Time. He’s taken away all of my favorite players. What I wouldn’t give to attend a PGA Tour Major in the mid 80’s.
Fuzzy’s swing was awesome to watch, but I loved to watch him putt.
Also, the high collar Lacoste shirt with the belt-less Sansibelt pants…love it!!
I like You wish I had a time machine so We could go back and enjoy those Sunday's in front of the TV. I was a huge Norman fan back then but like so many loved Fuzzy, Floyd, Watson and the herd. Great era of golf.
Excellent!
The 67 Fuzzy fired in the Monday playoff is one of the great rounds in the history of golf.
Absolute legend!
Absolute racist
I love fuzzy’s driver swing, mad power and a great turn. He is a legend.
I just watched you walk to the first green,you had a smile on your face
Didn’t realize he won a US Open. That’s awesome!
Who
Wonder if he eats fried chicken and collared greens
It was an ethnic joke. Grow a pair!
@@joecarlino7870 OK Fuzzy
@@steeleronfire7030don't be so sure that you're not a hypocrite.
@@joecarlino7870something a white guy would say. Serve fried chicken or collard or whatever else they serve.

Great series of videos ⛳️✝️🙏🏻
Fuzzy is a great champion, unique person with great golfing skills.
With the U.S. Open officially ditching the 18-hole playoff last year, Fuzzy Zoeller's 3-under par 67 in the 18-hole playoff will stand for all time (unless they bring back the 18-hole playoff) as the lowest score ever recorded in an 18-hole playoff at the U.S. Open.
Fuzzy, you are a great champion. Saw you playing PGA championship at Winged Foot.
Wondering if the Fuzz will pull the sticks out regarding the 9:11 respect in Greg's mistake.
😔
Do you know where I can get a good piece of fried chicken or collar greens?
It was an ethnic joke. Grow a pair!

Under your bed ? 🤣
I took a day off work to see the playoff.
Only Fuzzy waves a towel. Funny guy on the course. Maybe the funniest.
Norman waving the towel the next day. Wow.
Wonderful sportsmanship and good humor by both champions. Gotta love it!
Poor Greg I bet after hole 1 he thought game on but Fuzzy was having none of it he was on 🔥🔥🔥 2 of my childhood heroes what incredible guys as well as players. 🙏♥️
Fried chicken and collared greens or whatever those people eat. Snap!
That's not what he said.

Fuzzy 🍗 🍗 🥤, looking like Peter alliss? 🤔
I enjoyed watching Fussy play, he was Mr kool back in the day
Gotta love Fuzzy, awesome player and personality.
What about when talking about Tiger Woods
@@hoodieplays2996 "I accept Fuzzy's apology and hope everyone can now put this
behind us"--Tiger Woods
@@steveng8727 I said when talking about tiger😂
The Fuzz ❤️
This is what Fuzzy said when Tiger won
“"He's doing quite well, pretty impressive. That little boy is driving well and he's putting well. He's doing everything it takes to win. So, you know what you guys do when he gets in here? You pat him on the back and say congratulations and enjoy it and tell him not to serve fried chicken next year. Got it. Or collard greens whatever the hell they serve” facts
Jim Stark everything is politics with you loony leftists, you should seek treatment for your TDS because you'll be living with it for at least four more years the way your side is performing 😂
" "in response to
media inquiries about Fuzzy Zoeller's comments" at The
Masters. The statement: "At first I was shocked to hear
that Fuzzy Zoeller had made these unfortunate remarks. His
attempt at humor was out of bounds, and I was disappointed
by it. But having played golf with Fuzzy, I know he is a
jokester; and I have concluded that no personal animosity
toward me was intended. I respect Fuzzy as a golfer and as
a person and for the many good things he has done for others
throughout his career. I know he feels badly about his
remarks. We all make mistakes, and it is time to move on.
I accept Fuzzy's apology and hope everyone can now put this
behind us"--Tiger Woods
Thank you for providing that
Tiger and Fuzzy are friends they always where everyone else made a big deal of it
I don’t think Tiger cared much since Fuzzy made fun of everyone ..... including himself
He never said that
Looks like he’s been eating too much fried chicken or whatever the hell he eats
It was an ethnic joke. Grow a pair!
@@joecarlino7870go tell blk jokes around nothing but blk people and see how it turns out. Tell them to grow a pair right after.
@@joecarlino7870 it grows in your mothers muzzle

Everybody loves Fuzzy !!!
A Fat Bird once said: to the victor goes all the greens. Ageless wisdom.
Something tells me cancel culture is gonna come after this video
The fact that you are talking about it in that fashion means there may be a good reason to cancel it
@@thands74 what reason?
This video is not even 15-minutes long! why??? ....because his 15 minutes of fame are long over!
Paul Edmondson maybe his racial commentary about tiger at the masters in 1997
Cancel culture for what?
Naked and afraid ?
Racist
Who
People won’t remember racist fat fuzzy like they will tiger lmao no one will know he is 20 years from now
Fuzzy would have a charity event at his hometown course. Jim Thorpe would stay AT Fuzzy's house. Racist?...Not
Er yeah they will he's immortalised in sport for winning the US Masters and the US open check out the silverware it has his name on it. 🤔😅
