Choose an answer
A.The 1st golfer.
B.The 2nd golfer.
C.The 4th golfer.
D.The 3rd one.
Hint: It's a 3-word phrase with 8 letters, starting with "T".

The 3rd one.
Why this is the answer
Testing each golfer as the possible liar (only Mr. Brown lies) against all three statements is only consistent when the 3rd golfer is revealed to be Mr. Blue.
