Caitlyn has high range, so if you go in to fight her, try to W some auto attacks.
Gnar
Gnar, vayne, and lucian is the reason why I made this guide. Just try not to take extended trades and watch the rage bar.
Jhin
W after his root, and with most ADCs, jhin is squishy, making him not a big threat at lvl 3, and barely a threat at 6. If he gets ahead, try to cheese him by hiding in a brush.
Kai'Sa
Like jhin, just be mindful of her range and cheese with the brush.
Kalista
Theshy created a monster. A great kalista top will destroy you. I haven't encountered one, but they are very hard to fight as Garen with the high range and damage. Maybe get a gank if they are a huge problem.
Lucian
Lucian is also known for a top lane bully. Lucian builds life steal pretty early, making long trades useless because he will heal it back up quickly. Same thing as the others, try to kill him as early as you can, and try to cheese him in a bush.
Miss Fortune
I've never seen mf top lane, but make sure you aren't behind minions that are on low health to prevent poke. They are squishy, so all inning them is easy, as long as you close the distance.
Vayne
Vayne is hard if they are skilled, just like kalista. I've won 100% of my matchups against them, probably because I fought them once. Shield the bonus damage, from what I believe is her passive. With this, you will heal up. Try not to over extend, and try to farm near your tower. Maybe your jungle can get a gank if they have good cc. If you are 6, and you kill them, you can camp them in a bush when they try to get to lane. Make sure drag is up, or the jg is bot side, so you don't get ganked.
Heimerdinger
By far the biggest problem to garen. This matchup is just straight up horrible. Heimer has great poke, high damage, and lane control with his turrets. Even with this build, he will still deny you so much gold and exp. If he poke you down, he can tower dive with his jungler. Avoid at ALL COSTS. Maybe ask your mid to lane swap at the beginning if they are ok with it.
Syndra
Theshy has lately created another monster. It isn't as popular in lower elos, but in mid-high, it is horrible. Not as bad as heimer in my opinion, but it still sucks. Syndra can make your mid laner mispick their champ because they thought syndra was mid, she has good poke and lane control. She even has high damage at lvl 6. There is a whole Proguides video on Syndra top. Maybe go watch it just in case.
Twitch
I've never seen twitch top either, but one of my friends have. Twitch has high range and poke with his poison grenade. He also just has high range in general with his ult. Also, when he looks gone, he could just be invis, and can get free poke on you. Not a big threat, but just should know about him too.
Amumu
Great for helping you get the enemy with his stun and cc. As long as he hits his stun, it's a free kill usually. Everything else on the list contain junglers that have some sort of cc or dive potential, so you don't have to look at them. Gnar isn't that good to dive so keep that in mind later.
Volibear
Great for tower diving with some CC.
Cho'Gath
He isn't that good because all he has is a knockup. Can tower dive if he a chonk. Not too useful, but it gets the job done.
Fiddlesticks
Fiddle can fear and that's it.
Dr. Mundo
His slow is great to close the gap. He has high damage, and can dive after one or two items.
Ivern
Can cc your enemy, and can give you a red buff if you are on red side.
Jarvan IV
Can buff your attack speed and trap your enemy post 6.
Jax
Has a stun.
Elise
Elise has 2 tricks. One is a 2 second root, which one of, if not the longest roots. She also can one shot people too.
Kayn
Has a slow and can surprise the enemy. Also has great damage, and can kill the enemy with ult under tower.
Sejuani
A pretty good jungler with some cc. Can gank your lane a lot.
Rek'Sai
Has a good knockup.
Shaco
Has a great fear and high damage. Can surprise the enemy too with clone/invis.
Wukong
