Els - he looks like he's just got an easy poke and the ball flies! Mongomery and Couples have fairly uncomplicated swings. My favorite swing was the old Jim Furyk. A golf announcer, Gary McCord, I think, once said he looked like a man trying to kill a snake in a phone booth!

In my estimation i have to say vijay singh simply because he makes it look so easy yet he has a club speed of over 130 mph but when you look at it, it is unbelievably fluid.

I agree with Shawn Sizzle but I would also say Ernie Els also He was the Original Big Easy , his swing looks so effortless and easy but he really smacks the ball .

Well agree with both of them but erine els has a much simple swing. I tried to copy his swing and I could bearly get any distance on it. good luck

I would say Vijay Singh..he is simply the most hardworking golf player i have ever seen practising day after day to improve his swing back in his younger days in Asia..

Fred funks swing is very symmetrical and in sync but believe it or not Jim furyks swing is very simple is swing itself may be odd but his body has very little moving parts compared to a guy like Sergio Garcia. Even though everyone swings different to each his own tigers swing isn't all that simple his body used to and still is to quick at times annika sorenstam might just have the most basic and simple swing out there very similar to Fred funk.

Actually Ernie Els has had the best swing for years. It use to be Steve Elkington. Those two swings are the perfect swings

Your question was "who do you think has the most simple swing on tour? ". Not the best swing or the swing from your favorite golfer. The most simple swing on tour is that of Jeff Maggert. He's been on tour for twenty years and his swing hasn't changed because if its simplicity. I don't know how old you are or how much golf you watch, but if you get a chance to go to the practice tee at a tour event make a point to watch Jeff Maggert. Take the club back smoothly, keep the club on plane, the downswing starts easily because you've done the first two parts right, and finish on balance. No one does it more simpler than Jeff Maggert.
