If I won a major I’d be reflecting on the years of work and dedication I’d put in and on what had previously been a dream to get to such a point.

If it did cross my mind to wear a watch to enhance the event, a barely tweaked from stock minimum effort: maximum hype attention seeker is probably not one I’d be scrambling for.

Whichever one they will pay me the most to wear. If it’s my choice, a black no diamonds WG DD.

It's not even just the trophy presentations, but every guy pretty much puts their watch on from their bag immediately following the round so that it's visible even in interviews for guys that didn't win.

It's also just a normal golf move at any level even for non professionals - as soon as you finish the round you pull the watch out of the bag and throw it on your wrist so you don't get separated from it since clubs may end up going somewhere else.

Agreed, Rolex picks it

Looks like they picked out a 126613LB for him this time around. Looks so small on his wrists. They should have matched him up with and SD or DSSD.

If you won a major, which Rolex would you wear on the podium?
YG Le Mans as they drape my green jacket.
