Never thought about it in regards to golf but I can tell you I can't stand Stephen A Smith and Skip Bayless. I think they only have jobs because some exec thinks they have entertainment value.

As far as golf I will say that I would take more stock in what Butch Harmon says as opposed to Hank Haney. Butch still works with top talent while Hank appears to be interested in making a quick buck.

Sometimes former players seem to get commentator jobs just because they used to play. Doesn't mean they are any good.

Harmon does commentary on Sky and I really like him.

Hated Monty as a player but he is not a bad commentator (even though he does come of as a little bitter at times).
