I LOOOOOOOVE watching the Golf Channel...but everytime is see Inga Hammond I wanna punch something. I don't know if its just me put she is the most annoying Golf Channel commentator I've ever seen. The way she talks through her teeth just makes me crazy! I think I feel this way because she talks like my old boss...who was the devil in a woman's body...
I hope this doesn't offend anyone...

It's not just you. While I may not feel as strongly about her as you do, there is some level of "fingernails on a chalkboard" type of response I experience when she's on camera.
Plus I don't know who she is... I suppose an ex pro, huh?

I like her too. She seems like she's smart and a good person...maybe just a little out of place IMHO.

I have pet hates too.
Thomas Bjorn's 'My wisdom teeth are glued together when I speak' diction annoys me...
Adam Scott has a less-severe case of it too.
And Rory Sabbatini.. I feel like throwing the TV through the window when he's interviewed.. Aside from him being innately annoying, what on earth is that accent meant to be?

I don't hate her but she does annoy me. Too much news anchor/annoucer in her I think.
