First of all, let me clarify two things before you rip apart this list. One, this is based on the majors that I've been watching for the past 20 years. Two, it has nothing to do with the actual event or how it was won and everything to do with the golfers who took home the hardware.
Some of these guys were a joy to watch in their finest moment. Some of these guys pulled off incredible shots in the clutch to win. Not one of these guys, however, can claim to be great Tour Players.
5. Wayne Grady - 1990 Shoal Creek Golf and Country Golf
When this happened I wondered why the hell anyone watched golf. I soon learned that this guy isn't a typical major winner.

4. Todd Hamilton - 2004 Open Champion at Royal Troon
Yawning just thinking about this guy and his golf game.

3. Paul Lawrie - 1999 Open Champion at Carnoustie
This guy is actually a decent golfer but the Open that year was all about Jean Van de Velde. Lawrie was a non-factor unknown who's that? throughout the majority of the event and when Van de Velde handed him the trophy with his collapse, noone felt that this guy deserved anything.
2. Rich Beem - 2002 PGA Champion at Hazeltine
Truly enjoyable to watch it happen. I was even cheering for this guy. He seems like the everyday Joe Golfer. He's played well here and there but he's really not a very good golfer. In fact, he's garbage.

1. Shaun Micheel - 2003 PGA Champion at Medinah Country Club
Did nothing impressive before or after. Boring name and boring personality. Still playing but doing what he does best... nothing interesting.
