warshawlawin the PGA. According to what I read in the paper this a.m., they are considering one.
BTW, did you see Annika's story in SI when this whole thing started? With the bikini photos?? (a) wow. (b) she looks like she could kick my @$$ at most any sport except pizza eating, distance spitting (I'm taller), and 12 oz. curls. If she can play (and her 1 over today says she can), let her play. The male golfers who cry about it obviously have "issues" of their own they need to handle. Perhaps their game is a bit . . . short?
As far as Casey Martin and other handicapped players go, I note that he has already dropped off the tour, cart notwithstanding. Walking the course at a normal pace is hardly the sort of strenuous activity that would wear on a robust athlete; it is the sort of stroll in the park that my 71 year old mother can take. Strenuous? Heck, look at these guys: Most of them look like my accountant (nice clangers, Mikkelson). I'll take a little walking over a crippling injury any day.
