A golfer's nickname can come in many forms. From the most straightforward, i.e., which way round they play the game, to the reverential and then to the amusing and pretty much scathing. Golf probably isn't the greatest of sports for nicknames, with a general lack of imagination, but there are plenty of crackers.
One player is referred to on Tour as 'Eleven-erife' as he always likes to go one better than his peers. Then there's 'Bomb Scare' who was known to empty rooms with his conversation.
