Is that really true? I wonder what the stats are for that. It seems like if he's at least within striking distance after Saturday (particularly if he's in the last group), he wins often. But I don't know the actual numbers.
I agree, if golf isn't a sport, there's no such thing as a sport.
Motor racing is a sport, but not a very pure one, in fact it's probably the least pure of all sports. Hard to think of other sports where winning is so heavily dependent on the equipment and the rules, instead of the athlete.
And as far as Hemingway's other "sport," I don't really count cruelty to animals in a rigged "game" a sport.
