Shooter McGavin

Shooter McGavin is the main antagonist of the 1996 film Happy Gilmore and he is a talented but incredibly arrogant sportsman. Shooter delights in winning lots of money and praise while firing his caddies at will.
He was portrayed by Christopher McDonald.
His villainy is mainly in his total inability to play nice when it comes to someone that may be better than himself: his tactics went way beyond the usual cheating of arrogant rivals as well since he hired a stalker to harass his opponent and committed all manner of crazy stunts to try and ruin Gilmore's chance at success: he was also prone to trying to act like a schoolyard bully but his attempts at intimidation often backfired (as seen above).
Also noted at the end his villainy became his downfall when he tried to take Gilmore's grandmother's house. Happy Gilmore beats him in the championship causing him Shooter to lose the game. Shooter tries to steal Happy's Golden Jacket. Shooter is then beat up by Happy's old boss, Mr. Larson and an angry mob of spectators, after he steals the gold jacket from Doug in a fit of hysteria after Happy wins. Afterwards, it is presumed that he was banned from participating in future PGA events due to his bad sportsmanship and was exposed as a cheater.
