Style and Sportsmanship
« on: September 28, 2025, 07:45:24 PM »
I play golf as many do... I was taught at an early age that golf is a gentleman's (inc lady's) game. In general I believe that sportsman should demonstrate as much grace in loss as they do in victory. Fans apparently feel that these ideals are meaningless.

Today during the Ryder Cup finals Heather McMahan, one of the host MC's with a microphone lead the fans in a loud chant of "F---you Rory" referring to Rory McIlroy. There is always a winner and a loser in sport... can't believe its turning into a bunch of mouthy "tools". :mad:
Being male, an accident of birth. Being a man, a matter of age. Being a gentleman, a matter of choice.
