PGA should be ashamed of itself after the U.S. Open. The every guy’s sport is embarrassing itself by parading these sculpted, pink fuschia mid-drift tee-shirt wearing players around the links these days. The last unspoiled, non-athletic sport - bowling notwithstanding - is in jeopardy of losing its real sport-ness (You, Me and Dupree)
There’s a real prospect of alienating the demographic that has elevated the game of golf - the grit smokin’, beer guzzlin’, cheeseburger-at-the-turn-eatin’ - population. Or, simply, 95% of the male golfers in the U.S.
As a fan and avid spectator of the game, I wanna look out across the links and relate to that fella from head to beerbelly. I don’t wanna worry about skippin’ out on last night’s cardio at the gym. I’d rather be worried about how I’m gonna get home from the bar that night.
