Does anyone know where I can buy this watch?
golf is probably THE hardest sport there is, granted there is no running or anything else but these guys have tons of talent and plus they have to walk like 72 holes of golf in a weekend. Tiger Woods can drive a golf ball over 250 yards from his knees. I would loooove to see any other professional athelete do this.I agree, it isn't a sport.
Actually, the way the game is played at the top levels today, there is a great deal of athleticism. Just look at Tiger Woods. It is much as in baseball, where technique and strategy is usually more important than brute strength. Nobody would challenge baseball's classification as a sport.

Not true. There's a lot of athleticism in golf. The top level players today have a tremendous amount of core and lower body strength. Also, classifying sports solely on athleticism overlooks the element of mental toughness, which all athletes regardless of which sport they play, claim is a key component of their success. Whether you're pitching in front of 40,000 or driving off the 1st tee in front of ten thousand, there's a lot of pressure to perform. If golf didn't take some athletic ability we'd all be out there trying to make millions.More Questions & Answers...
