| I play golf because it is the one sport that the average joe can play and do something that the greatest golfers in the world would be jealous of.
It is a game where no one can influence your outcome, there is no one there to block your putt from rolling in from 100ft, and you have no teammate (most of the time) to pick up your slack when you fail.
In its purest, golf is you vs. you, and no matter what you always lose.
But mostly I play golf because I learned long ago that it is the only one of the major televised sports that I can play absolutely piss drunk. |
