Gentle Ben is an ICON not only of the game of golf but of a man as well. When an honor to live during the time that he played. What a great example for all golfers and men to emulate.
I have high respect for Ben’s stout stands defending the game’s tradition. All greats in the past and even some in present will agree with him. Money is seed of all evil and greed.
There has never been a more frozen moment in time than Ben’s expression of emotion in winning his 2nd Masters tournament, and the heartwarming moment when Ben’s caddie offers a legendary hug for Ben’s beautiful human expression of love for his mentor Harvey Pinnick, who had passed away a few days earlier…this beautiful moment of a black caddie and a white golfer should serve as a legendary portrait for all to see the power of emotion sweeping away any racial diversity…this one photograph should stand forever as to the magical sense of camaraderie and bond that envelops all sports, dismissing forever any racial, religious or ethnic beliefs…may the good Lord richly bless Ben and his ever faithful caddie with good health and happiness, until they walk together that last fairway …
Remember watching Crenshaw at brookside in columbus back in the early 70's. He had the reputation of the next big Star. Being very hansome, beautiful women swooned over him.
I won’t watch LIV golf and the players who went to LIV for the money are history to me. I still the watch PGA tour and will continue to. There is plenty of new talent there.
You miss the point entirely. Every single tour player today putts under the rules of Ben Crenshaw. Even Tiger. And his claim to fame is that he was man enough to open up about it. There were a few others who knew how to putt too but every single one of them kept it to themselves. Even Nicklaus. That alone makes him one of the all time greats. People forget, up until about 1960 it was almost a given that the leader was going to choke somewhere on the last 4 holes with their putter. Crenshaw ended that for everyone by telling people what he did to be such a great putter. It's the RELEASE stupid. The release takes the player out of the putt.
LIV is funded by Saudi Arabia. All but two of the 9/11 hijackers were Saudis. Period. “Never forget” is apparently only a meaningless quote when it comes to many of the already super wealthy PGA professionals. Golf, a sport of honesty, tradition and class is fading into history. I haven’t watched a televised golf event since LIV was formed. I hope there are many out there who agree.
If the players didn't get played,who keeps the enormous amount of money these tournaments make,the pga, that's what it's all about,same argument with other sports,money talks and bullshit walks
The name "Gentle Ben" was given to Crenshaw with sarcasm, after a temper tantrum he threw in a junior tournament (and it was not his first blow-up). With experience, his demeanor improved...
What rumor did he finally reveal and no the pay for play for American ryder cup players did not over shadow the Great American come back win. I also agree with ben if you don't want to represent your country don't play.
Absolutely. I went to school with Ben and while we weren't close friends, we knew each other. This "article" is TOTAL rubbish and not worth wasting one's time on.
In 1968 the PGA Tour is formed. Led by Nicklaus and Palmer, the players split from the PGA of America because they didn't like PGA Club Professionals being allowed in their event$. The split was only about the money. So get off your high-horse and accept that PGA Tour players are not some kind of holier than thou "traditionalists". They wear slave-made clothes and act as though they're staunch "traditionalist' just looking to "protect the game", because you don't know the facts and fall for their propaganda. You lap it up because of their golf talent and refuse to believe your lying eyes.

Ben has made a great contribution to the game as a player and now as a course designer
It told us nothing. It just repeated the fact that Crenshaw respects the values of the sport. Waste of time.
Thank you for watching. I will relay the feedback to the team for future videos.

Class act of a human being… only BEN…. ❤️🩹🌹💪🏻🇺🇸LOVE YOU MR. CRENSHAW…….. THANK YOU SIR!!!!!!!

Should be the PGA Commissioner. His credentials are very powerful.
Ben is my favourite golfer ever!

I still the watch PGA tour and will continue to. There is plenty of new talent there.
I'd say you are either a hypocrite or just ignorant. The PGA Tour formed because of money.
Great video, thank you for sharing 🙏
Thanks for watching!
Always liked Ben…
Useless clickbait. Does nothing justice.
A lotta shots with Lions in the background! 🤘🏾

Best putter I ever saw.

no all of the high jackets was President Brush and his cronies. Saudi pilots are a lie. You need to research.
Yea well guess what....the PGA TOUR took plenty of Saudi $ over the years.
@@patc1309 how much and when?
@@patc1309 crickets.....
Well, we thought the terrorists flew the planes, but they couldn’t fly Cessnas, so . . .
The name "Gentle Ben" came from a television show about a Black Bear whose name was..wait for it..Gentle Ben. 😂
Ben is a friend, not sure why a standard with Mark Lye and Tom Kite made the video? Or did I miss something
The LIV tour has awaken the PGA Tour up! LIV is here for a couple more years, the PGA will be here 100 years from now?

The has it Right! There are Traditions we need to up hold. It is a Sport that builds Integrity which all Sports Need! PA
Pay the babies! That way they will be able to wear their caps and stuff!
Nice Artificial Intelligence Voice
Ben hasn't aged well
Yet we rely on the Saudis for oil because Brandon didn't want us to be energy independent. Give me a break...
Please edit and fact check your videos. The pronunciation of LIV golf is awful. AI narration requires human checking.
