By GolfDigest.com Staff

As 2018 winds down, it's time to review the top golf Instagram posts of the season. And, we hope you're sitting down, most of them involve Tiger Woods. Call us crazy, but we think there might be a following for this Woods guy. Only time will tell...Anyway, from Tiger to Phil to Tiger and Phil, here are the top 10 Instagram golf posts of 2018.

The U.S. Ryder Cup team arrives in France

Ah, a time when the future seemed so bright for the Americans. Unfortunately, Francesco Molinari and Tommy Fleetwood delivered a swift "au revoir" as the Europeans steamrolled to a 17 1/2 to 10 1/2 victory.

"The Match" is confirmed

Hey now, Tiger Woods and Phil Mickelson, playing a one-on-one bout? What could possibly go wrong?

Tiger Woods wins at East Lake

Give us a second, we're remembering 10,000 fans rushing the 18th fairway to bathe their hero in love...We're not crying. You're crying.

Mo money, mo problems

Here is Phil Mickelson doing his best impersonation of a late-90s rap album cover in a photo-op for "The Match."

Conor Moore's DJ impression

The man's so good he makes Frank Caliendo look like a hack...we swear that's a compliment.

Tiger Woods wins Tour Championship

That's right, Tiger's triumph at the Tour Championship is listed twice. It's almost as if the sport's most iconic player winning for the first time in five years after his career was thought to be finished was a big deal or something.

Justin Thomas and Rickie Fowler celebrate with Tiger

We have one question, and one question only: where do we get a hold of those "one size fits all" shirts?

Phil's filthily dance moves

Got to feel for ad executives. Think of all the time, effort and energy that goes into creating effective marketing campaigns. An entire occupation that Phil Mickelson usurped in seconds. For they can storyboard all they want, but they will never come close to getting the type of traction Mickelson earned by simply saying, "Hey, what if I just dance for a few minutes?"

Fowler's off the market

That sound you heard was millions of hearts all over the world breaking.

Phil wins "The Match"

There were a few issues with the presentation of this made-for-TV exhibition. But that Mickelson didn't jump in a glass case with money flying all around him after the W is right up there.
