ID the silhouette

This was a fun little challenge I came across on Golf.com

Identify These Golf Swings | Galleries | Golf.com

The first picture is a silhouette, then the second is the actual picture, listing who it is, and with some what they accomplished at that point. Some of them were pretty easy, but a few I had no idea. You old-timers will probably get the ones that I couldn't.

Re: ID the silhouette

I missed 2 but needed the (text-) hints to make some good guesses on 3 or 4.

Re: ID the silhouette

I thought for sure the Adam Scott silhouette was Tiger Woods.

Re: ID the silhouette

I liked the last one of Arnie, seeing the flex in the shaft as he was all coiled up ready to unload. He could really put a pounding on the ball!

It's crazy how close they look. It was the nose that did it (then the hint which I should've read first and it would've been easier!). I got 9 of 15.

My favourite was Duval and Payne. That still of Stewart is one of the greatest golf images ever.

Re: ID the silhouette

Missed all but two... there was no way I would miss the one of Daly, and I've seen the picture of Stewart enough to quickly identify it.
