Charles Barkley Named Worst Celebrity Golfer

By Spike Eskin

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Charles Barkley has many talents. He was an incredible basketball player, one of the best power-forwards who ever played the game. He's a funny, informative television analyst. He's a successful pitchman for brands like Nike and Weight Watchers. No one would ever put golf on his list of talents. In fact, his golf skills have made a different list.

Golf Channel has named their top ten worst celebrity golfers, and Barkley tops the list.

Though inexplicably determined to improve himself, Barkley is notorious in the world of golf for having one of, if not THE worst, swing in the sport. Even Hank Haney struggles trying to correct it.

Hank Haney is a legendary golf instructor, having coached Tiger Woods and Mark O'Meara.
