Why is Golf so big and widley covered by espn?

bunch of tough guys here. When you guys can play like tiger, then you can say it isn't a sport. I don't watch golf, but i respect the concentration, technique, and mental toughness.

Its a game. If a 70 year old can excel at it, its not a sport.

i respect proffesional dart players, oprah singers, jet pilots....but i dont call any of those things a sport. the only reason golf is called a sport, is because its played with a ball and a stick.

Look, you could be the "World's' greatest Pig-Fucker". Just because I couldn't do it "better" than you, or have better technique or whatever, doesn't make it a sport. Y'know what I mean?


Spelling Bees.. Cheerleading competitions... Give me a fucking break ESPN.

Not on the level of an elite athlete and not even close,theirs a gym full of people who are much better athletes and they work full time on top of that.
 
i dont think you guys know what "sport" means, or why they were originally created.

If you're saying what I think, wouldn't monopoly be a sport as well? There is competition, strategy and ultimately a clear winner.

Well, when he partakes in sports then I'll be fine with him bing called an athlete.

Otherwise its insulting to actual athletes taking risks in sports.

Woods is very good at what he does, but what he does isn't sports.

Is this wasteland, mma forum or boxing forum?

Honestly, I didn't think the ol' golf vs boxing would have a revival.
 
Hey, there's chess boxing, how about golf boxing? Set up a ring near the green on each hole, and after finishing the hole the golfers box a round or two.
 
Yeah, alot of you guys are coming off as elitest assholes in here.

Most of you are approaching this "golf isn't a sport" are doing it the way MMA fans approach "boxing isn't real fighting". That is, with a huge level of disrespect and immaturity.

Whether or not golf is or isn't a sport, it's something that's incredibly hard to master - anyone who says otherwise has either never played it or is playing devil's advocate - and the people who play it and are good at it are worthy of all the respect they get.
