Tiger WoodsPerhaps the most ardent -- and nomadic -- student of the game of today's players, Woods would have no shortage of in-depth technical swing analysis. You also never know when he might say something that has to be bleeped out.

Phil MickelsonHave you ever heard him miked up when talking to caddie Jim "Bones" Mackayduring a tournament? The guy has been auditioning for this for years.

Rocco MediateSimply put, the man loves to talk. The only downside would be having to hear about how close he came to topping Tiger at Torrey on a weekly basis.

Geoff OgilvyAlways one to speak his mind on everything from fellow pros to golf course architecture, Ogilvy could be a Johnny Miller in the making. Also, TV just might run in the family. Through his marriage, the Aussie is related to Hall-of-Famer Judy Rankin.

Paul GoydosNot an ounce of hubris in him, his self-deprecating sense of humor could be a nice change of pace from Johnny and Sir Nick.

Andres GonzalesSomewhat of a sleeper when compared to the bigger names on this list, but have you read his Twitter timeline? Let's just say the guy is funny. If he can't stick on the PGA Tour, this could be a great backup career plan.

Joe OgilvieVery smart and opinionated, this economics major from Duke could even sprinkle some stock tips into the broadcast.

Ben CraneThe game's surprising king of comedycould certainly add a humorous touch to any telecast. We just hope he'd be able to make his on-camera delivery a little more quickly than he plays a typical golf shot.

Jeff OvertonWhat he lacks in career wins (still looking for No. 1 despite a bunch of close calls), the Indiana University product would make up for in spirit. Plus, his Ryder Cup appearance also produced his own catchphrase: "Boom, baby!"
