Players Championship

Kev,

What do you think of Aaron Baddeley?

It seemed like when him and Adam Scott both came from Australia (both around the same time), I used this statement to describe the two:

"Adam Scott: All game, no charisma. Aaron Baddeley: All charisma, no game" lol.
I said this because Scott got off to a much better start on the Tour than Baddeley, but he seems so much like Els or Goosen that he's just so mellow and easy (and boringly unemotional). But I loved that commercial "Badds" did for MacGregor a couple of years ago... but that's about all he's remembered for up to this season lol.

But this season, it really seems like Baddeley has made some nice strides. don't think he's won an event (or did he), but he has a lot of top 10 finishes. He was in the 3rd to last group on Sunday at the Players, starting the day at -5. Didn't look like he had a good day though, because the only 2 times they showed him on TV, was him teeing off on 1, and putting it in the drink on 17 lol.

But overall what do you think of his game and the strides he's made this season? Do you think he'll ever match Adam Scott's game and be a Top 10 world player?

BADDS has won this year. (FBR Open) and he also won last year at Harbour Town(had a top 10 finish this year in his title defense), which is a ballstrikers golf course. Very few "fluke" winners occur there. When his iron play is on, he is very good. Has his weeks though when he struggles hitting greens. He has a ton of game, evidence by winning the Australian Open at age 18. The jury is still out on him regarding his future. He will make tons of cash...but the victories may be once a year or so.

Aaron Baddely won at least once last year (sure about Harbortown). He changed his swing and found god (I'm kidding about the found god part, although it may be true). I've got to type faster, Kev beat me to the response.

Badds and his wife are both deeply religious.
