'''Gene''' is an elite [[human]] golfer in the [[Mario Golf (series)|''Mario Golf'' series]]. His full name is "Gene Yuss"". He is suave, intelligent, and sophisticated, though arrogant and self-absorbed. His full name is a pun on the word "genius", which also describes his self-centered personality, and his first name is possibly a reference to late professional golfer [[wikipedia:Gene Sarazen|Gene Sarazen]].  

In ''[[Mario Golf (Game Boy Color)|Mario Golf]]'', Gene was known as the Birdie King and the Greatest of the Great, and he was once the champion of the [[Links]], but his title was taken by [[Kid]], who defeats him in golf.

In ''[[Mario Golf: Advance Tour]]'', he speaks in third person ("The Gene"), and is protective and competitive about his singles title. When he learns that he may lose his title, he begins to panics, which also gives him an intense desire to improve. He also reclaimed his titles back after Kid was injured badly due to excessive training caused by strain of his muscles and joints. He was later defeated by Kid again after he recovered from his injuries and was rising up of the ranks. Gene later formed a doubles team with Kid in a final attempt to stop [[Neil]] and [[Ella]] from taking his Birdie King title.

<blockquote>How do you do? My name is Jean. It's sweet of you to try me. If you want to challenge me, try after defeating the three above. Even though my club looks small, it has a lean form and accurate striking and distance. If you do not have a lot of experience, you can not compete equally with me! It seems [[Putts|Pats]] is saying that he will beat me in the near future. He seems to have increased considerably, but even if it takes 100 years, he can not win against me! That means that there is a difference between him and me!</blockquote>
