Ian Poulter's top 10 neighbors form a tightly compressed cluster of golf-specific entities — fellow tour athletes, dedicated TV channels, and major championships — with scores spanning just 0.97 to 0.94 and no single neighbor pulling decisively ahead of the rest.
The shape is flat. Sergio Garcia leads at 0.97, followed closely by The Open (0.96), ESPN Golf (0.96), Justin Rose (0.96), U.S. Open (USGA) (0.96), and Keegan Bradley (0.95). The remaining four — David Feherty (0.95), Jason Day (0.94), Golf Channel (0.94), and Morning Drive (0.94) — sit within a fraction of a point of each other. By subcategory, the top 10 breaks down as five Athletes, two TV Channels, one TV Personality, one Sporting Events organization, and one TV Show — an almost entirely golf-media ecosystem. Feherty is the lone TV Personality in the set; every other individual is a fellow athlete. The two major championships (The Open and U.S. Open (USGA)) and the two dedicated TV channels (ESPN Golf and Golf Channel) confirm that the audience overlap extends beyond individual players to the institutional infrastructure of the sport itself.
The overall picture is a deeply sport-specific audience with no meaningful separation between its nearest neighbors — a profile defined by density within a single domain rather than any cross-category reach.
