I actually get exhausted playing golf - but that's because I'm BAD at it. Apparently I put too much force into my swing. Every time I've tried to play I get told to relax and "let the club to the work".

So they literally have these weighted sticks to reduce the amount of frickin effort required to hit the ball.

It's not a sport. It's an ANTI-sport. The less you try the better you'll be.

Can you imagine if we had an Olympic running sport to see who the slowest runner was? That's what golf is. Get the weakest, limpest, vitamin-defficient humans and see how accurately they can hit a tiny ball into a hole.

It was invented by the Scots as a joke against the English while they all go and compete in proper sports like caber tossing and hammer throwing.

Or to keep it short, know that John Daly is one of the greats of the sport. Look up a picture of John Daly dated any time in the last 30 years, and you'll know how hilarious that is.

And people complain that Starcraft isn't a sport.
