Miguel Angel Jimenez's British Open Stretching Routine (VIDEO)

Golf is a sport that is generally not known for being associated with humor, most of the time, but ESPN had a little fun at the British Open today observing Miguel Angel Jimenez's pre-round stretching routine. The routine was best summed up by color commentator Paul Azinger when he concluded: "This is awesome."

Whatever this routine was, the cigar smoking Jimenez probably isn't going to drop it; he's only one stroke back of the lead after two rounds.

Don't you just love it when sports announcers,wannabe athletes if there ever were any,criticize a pro athlete for his warm-ups?

No, I love it when folks comment on things that they know very little about. Paul Azinger is a pro golfer. He has won a dozen PGA tournaments.

Sports announcers are in that category.

Smoking a cigar can reduce tension and alleviate stress, and it becomes routine like a cup of coffee to start your day. http://www.cigarpoet.net

All that's missing is a martini in one hand.

Looks like a Caddyshack moment!

What a gut and it looks like he's taking a dump!

Who says golfer's aren't atheletes?

The best part is that he's stretching with a cigar in his mouth

I love how he says, "This is awesome!"

Kudos to Jimenez for not giving a F#%! about what anyone else thinks.

Do. Your. Thing.
