Getting back into the game over the last few months I have taken to watching as much golf as possible, read allowed!!!!!, I am in awe at how hard this guy hits the ball, not sure if this is a man crush or not but the hairs stand up on the back of my neck when he compresses the ball as hard as he does on an iron shot. I know Long John gave the ball a fearsome whack and I guess a few others do but is Stenson different to most pro's in his ball striking ability????

He rips it has a slight leak of power on the first movement of his downswing when clearing his hips and gets a little steep. Hard to keep it consistent with this action. Can play, awsome striker. Great short game for a big fellow...

Can obviously play, but anyone who wears the arms of the sunglasses over the outside of their cap looks like a complete spook.

Just shows how when you get on a roll what you can do. It wasnt that long ago he thought about giving up the game.

I get the impression he is one of the biggest wankers on tour. Is playing pretty good golf recently though. Google Henrik Stenson dummy spits, the video of him breaking his club at the US open a few years back and cutting his hand is funny stuff. If Tiger did some of the stuff this guy has done people would be calling for his head. Wanker in my opinion.

Just looked at the scores $$$$$$ for Stenson. Can't think of a player who goes as hot and cold as this man, good on him.

brilliant to watch him the last few months. His second shot into 18th today topped it off perfectly!

Rubbish, he is renowned for being one of the quickest and driest wits on the Tour, has been since he joined the tour. He is also a consummate practical joker as well I gather. He has personality, when so many others don't.

Or sounds like he says funny things? Those European boys look like they have heaps of fun though, Gmac, Westwood, Poulter and co..

its exciting to watch him play. very aggressive and crush the balls well. very confident ball striker, i have seen him picking up the tees right after he hits it more often than most.

That second shot in on 18 was RIDICULOUS.

Had to laugh at the celebration and the antics with Poulter.

For someone who is boring and a git he sure seems loved by his peers.

Celebrations on 18 and with his son looked very sincere.

Incredible shot on 18. F### taking it easy.

Lagerlover's ballstriking reminds me of Payne Stewart.

Flies a long way, and lands in the middle of nowhere.

Haha, thought the same thing. Well, she is Swedish after all.

He's won $19mill this year. Even his caddie just bought a red Ferrari.

What about the lovely lady waiting for the Spanish swinger when Jimenez walked off 18. Looked about 25 years younger and quiet athletic.

Must be his little pot belly.
