It’s always fun to watch NBA players play golf. Some of them are really bad, but they try hard.
You can certainly understand why it’s difficult for them. Look at the golfers on the PGA Tour, do you see any that are seven-footers with long arms? Nope. Last time I checked there aren’t many tall, lanky golfers, as that body type isn’t really conducive to a smooth, fluid swing.
Dirk Nowitzki stands at seven-foot-zero, and he recently hit the links at the Mavs Masters Golf Tournament. Judging by his golf swing, we’re going to go out on a limb and guess that he didn’t win the tournament.
You can be the judge regarding how it stacks up against Charles Barkley’s.
We’ll declare Nowitzki the winner based on style points, but it’s close.
