Golf ~ Why I Love This Sport

I love this sport because its competitors are taught honesty and respect at an early age.

I love this sport because I can be outside and enjoy the smell of cut grass without having to mow the lawn.

I love this sport because even after a day of horrible play, one good shot will always bring you back for more.

I love this sport because two 40-somethings can play with a 12 year-old and a 77 year-old…and get beat by both.

I love this sport because a girl can still dress like a girl while bombing a 300-yard drive.

I love this sport because watching Golf in HD is almost as good as, well, let's not go there.

I love this sport because a 59 year-old golfing legend can come within one-stroke of winning a Major Championship and making history while beating the young guns. Good for you Tom Watson.
