I'm relatively new to golf, so could someone explain why professional golfers remove their hats as soon as they finish the18th hole, even before shaking hands, or waving to the crowd? In fact, I saw the caddies without their hats on today at the PGA tournament immediately after Tiger won. Why is that?

I'm here, but the guy who snipes at fivey is an imposter. Oh well, can't pass up on an invitation like that... Fivey, when the school bus picked you up, was it one of those short ones?

It's a sign of respect to remove your hat to shake someones hand.

I guess I'm too used to NASCAR drivers putting ON hat after hat after a race, and hockey players leaving their helmets on after a play-off series to shake hands, and baseball players leaving their hats on while congratulating each other after a win that I never thought of it that way.

I am not surprised at all by NASCAR driver and hockey player behavior. J
