The people who say that though have an attention span of a goldfish.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with watching golf.

Used to watch it in 80's and 90's, now can't stand it. Shameless drive by Eccleston and his cronies to make an astonishing amount of money for all concerned. It isn't motor sport imo. If you want to see proper racing get down to Oulton Park, Snetterton and Croft for a club weekend and see some real wheel to wheel stuff instead of the jewel dripping procession served up each fortnight for the 'a' listers.

Alternatively, people who think there's nothing wrong with watching golf, only have the mental capacity to deal with one thing at a time

If they had maneged to get the Grand Prix up and running at Donnington I might have been tempted, but its more interesting watching traffic on the M1 than it is the procession that is motor racing at zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzilverstone.

As a golfer myself (to a reasonable standard), I must say, I dont find golf particularly exiting to watch as a TV sport, apart from The Open, The Masters and Ryder Cup. It's great to go there and watch it in person, and see the player's swings, approaches to the game.

The only trouble with people who slag off golf, is normally they have trouble walking without their knuckles scraping on the floor, or have the usual stereotypical chip on their shoulder about it being a sport for snobs. IT'S NOT.
