We need your help.
Newspapers and media companies nationwide are closing or suffering mass layoffs since the coronavirus impacted all of us starting in March. City Weekly's entire existence is directly tied to people getting together in groups--in clubs, restaurants, and at concerts and events--which are the industries most affected by new coronavirus regulations.
Our industry is not healthy. Yet, City Weekly has continued publishing thanks to the generosity of readers like you. Utah needs independent journalism more than ever, and we're asking for your continued support of our editorial voice. We are fighting for you and all the people and businesses hardest hit by this pandemic.
You can help by making a one-time or recurring donation on PressBackers.com, which directs you to our Galena Fund 501(c)(3) non-profit, a resource dedicated to help fund local journalism. It is never too late. It is never too little. Thank you. DONATE

No Soup for the Tiger
Posted By Rebecca Walsh on July 17, 2009, 3:44 PM
More proof that golf is not a sport...
In a real sport, a 60 year old man does not kick the ass of the supposed #1 player in the world.
In a real sport, the “best” player in the world does not finish in the bottom half of the field of “athletes.”
In a real sport, the “greatest player of our time” would not finish behind 74 other players, and not qualify to play in a major tournament. All of those things happened today though, as Tiger Woods did not make the cut for the PGA/British Open. A big to-do in the golf world. Why?… because it has only happened twice to the Tiger. Are you kidding me? This happened once already?
If he were a baseball player, he would be sent back down to the minor leagues. Oh wait, never mind… baseball is a sport.
Also, in a real sport, you don’t cry when a cameraman “screws up your swing” (actual photo.) In a real sport, that’s called dealing with the pressure of competition.
Once again… golf is a game, not a sport. Just like pool, checkers and poker.
