How do you feel about Golfers?

So I'm looking at a sports web site checking out the US Open Golf tournament, and there is a listing of all the players and what is their score, and at the top of the list is a "rating" check box where you rate your favorite player, and the options are:

1. Favorite 2. Preferred 3. Despised

and I was kinda surprised that they would give you the option to list someone as "Despised" it seems like such a strong word and how would you work up the emotion to despise a golfer, what did he ever do to you to make you despise him? and I reflected on this for a moment and wondered if I despise any golfers or any one else for that matter, and maybe some people are not my "favorite" or even "preferred" but "despise"? and I couldn't really think of anyone, not really, but out of curiosity I would like to see a top ten list of despised golfers and maybe have a talk with them and do some counseling and see if I can move them up on the list to merely "loathe" or "dislike" or even "apathy" or "unconcerned" or maybe "indifferent", and ... does their unpopularity affect their golf score?
