Golf expertise: A driven golfer with a handicap around 13, David belongs to Riviera Country Club in Pacific Palisades. What he means to the game: David plays several charity events a year, but his biggest impact is through spotlighting the game on his TV shows. Whether it’s stealing a 5-wood from a dead man’s casket, telling a surgeon with shaking hands that he suffers from “the yips,” or meeting Ben Hogan in a weird vision of heaven, his golfing exploits on “Curb Your Enthusiasm” aren’t high on etiquette, but they do oddly promote the game. Quotable: “What if the weatherman predicts it’s going to rain just so he can keep people off the golf course so he can have it for himself?” — David, from “The Weatherman” episode on “Curb Your Enthusiasm.” FAMOUS COMEDIANS IN GOLF: Will Ferrell | Larry David | George Lopez | Jackie Gleason | Bob Hope Kevin James | Ray Romano | Kevin Nealon | Ellen DeGeneres | Bill Murray ALSO SEE: Laughing Matters — four of the funniest golf comedies |
