And here we were thinking that Justin Timberlake is the nattiest musician golfer around. According to Golf Digest’s Top 100 in Music, which charts the best musician golfers, Kenny G takes the Number One spot. He comes in ahead of such rock/golf luminaries as Vince Gill and No Doubt’s Adrian Young. Also included: Snoop Dogg (Number 44) and Bob Dylan, who comes in at Number 63. Dylan’s presence on this list causes us to bask in rapturous fantasies involving taking up golf (we said they were fantasies) and happening upon Dylan somewhere near the ninth hole. What does he wear when he golfs? Does he wear those geeky cleats and matching gloves? Does he do that thing where you very deliberately wrap your fingers around the grip several times before taking your swing?
While we’re on this subject, why is it that every day we are regaled with tabloid pics of, like, Tara Reid filling up her tank in stripper heels, but we’ve yet to see one shot of Bob Dylan on the golf course? Scarlett Johansson likes him, isn’t that enough to earn one or two paparazzi serving the Dylan starved masses with some lowbrow reporting?
While you ponder that, also ponder this thought-provoking quote from Kenny G regarding the similarities between playing sax and playing golf: “With the sax, I learned technique well enough so that it feels like part of my body and I just express myself. That’s where I want to get in golf.”
