Humorous golf terms

In episode 2 of the second season of "Bad Sisters," one character says that his golf nickname is "Adolph" because he "takes two shots in the bunker."  After I finished laughing, I did a quick search, which led me to a list assembled in a Golf Monthly forum, several of which I have abstracted below.  Golfers will understand what these mean:
A Salman Rushdie - an impossible read

A Rock Hudson - thought it was straight, but it wasn't

A Cuban - needs one more revolution

An Adolf Hitler - two shots in the bunker

A Glenn Miller - kept low and didn't make it over the water

A Rodney King - over-clubbed

An O.J. Simpson - got away with it

A Princess Grace - should have taken a driver

A Princess Di - shouldn't have taken a driver

A Jean-Marie LePen - a long way right

A circus tent - a BIG top

A Ryanair - flies well but lands a long way from the target
Many are in poor taste; the egregiously bad ones I left behind at the link.

  1. Rushdie? More like Pynchon.
