All of the top pros calculate risk before they throw a shot, that's kind of the point of the game. Is your position that Simon throws this shot for pure entertainment and not because he has a chance to get a lower score than anyone else in the field on the hole?
Pretty sure Simon is looking 100% at reward and not concerned with risk.
He just seems a bit ADD about the whole thing and I bet he would shoot worse... or maybe he does shoot worse and lose focus when he tries to play at all conservative.
I've known some of these people in other sports and it does seem almost frustrating to see all that talent not doing what we would like to see from them. The Harlem globetrotter comment I initially disagreed with, but the more I think about it, it's kinda on line, maybe more the street basketball where there are style points. I've know really good athletes that are just simply bored with trying to play the "correct" way and want to entertain themselves more than win.
