If Louis Oosthuizen Loved Golf Like He Loves John Deere...

The sweet-swinging South African might be number one in the world?

Just wondering after reading this Craig DeVrieze PGATour.com story about the Oosthuizen clan's visit to the John Deere factory on the eve of the John Deere Classic.

I love the passion, but this is also mildly disturbing:

Louis Oosthuizen has no need for a combine on the 150 acres where he raises cattle on the Indian Ocean coast near his parents’ farm. He is eager, however, to step into the new John Deere R450 Windrower tractor he recently ordered. It will join a 6000 Series John Deere tractor that was among the first items he purchased with his British Open winnings.

Piet Oosthuizen said his son’s love of John Deere green knows no end.

“You can ask him anything about John Deere,” the father said. “He is on the computer every day, and he knows every spec of every piece of John Deere equipment. He loves it.”
