              I disagree. You walk 72 holes over 4 days and put up with the mental pressure associated with having over a million on the line.


              Could you have made the winning putt today?



              I assume were talking about the Masters.

                        Actually no. I have not played a round in over a year and rarely watch it on tv however the Masters is played about 20 minuts from me so I feel I have a vested intrest in it.

                              If it was any kind of sport they would have a few thousand fans screaming and yelling on a putt.

                              Could you make a free throw with 20K people screaming at you?

                              And have you ever seen a football player have someone else carry an umbrella for him because it rained during the game?

                              Sad?.

                                    Because if you walk the shit 5 times a week and and swing 250+ shots a week, its better than sitting your ass in front of a PC



                                    Do you play golf ?

                                                  Why is "GOLF" considered a sport?
                                                  because is is a sport, better question might be why is darts a sport!

                                                  I play sometimes and love it....but i'm not gonna sit here and defend it because when i was 15 i thought the same thing

                                                      Just because its not as physical as football, hockey, or contact sports like that doesn't make it any less of a sport. Its still as challenging, if not more so than the others - just less of a physical exertion.

                                                          Could you make a free throw with 20K people screaming at you?

                                                          And have you ever seen a football player have someone else carry an umbrella for him because it rained during the game?

                                                          Sad?.
                                                          So, because people watching golf have more respect for the players when they need to concentrate...that makes it less of a sport?

                                                          I dont even play, nor do have any desire to - but I've been to the driving range, and I have respect for how difficult it is. It may not be as visceral and exciting to watch as some other sports; it just requires a different mindset I guess.

                                                            I consider golf a recreational activity not a sport...like shooting pool or playing darts, thats not to say its easy cause I know its not
