It's a pastime played professionally by middle aged blokes in white trousers with pot bellies, it's not a sport.
The only thing I dislike more than golfers are people who go and watch at and applaud. Fair enough if you either fancy poking a ball about with a stick as a precursor to a drinking spree, or get paid a fortune by a sponsor because Sky TV feel the need to broadcast you to sad piss stinking old retired blokes who haven't fucked their wives in twenty years and buy their clothes from Jacamo.com but as far as its merits as a sport are concerned - fuck off.
Carry on.
