Because people are idiots, golf is a game not a sport, just like chess, checkers, and bowling. If you don't have to be athletic to play it, it's not a sport.

First off, you need to define "sport." Given that you don't appear to be very well adjusted nor that smart, you probably define it in simple terms, as something that requires strength, speed, and physical skill. However, look closely at golf: it requires all those things. Do you define baseball as a sport? Most players stand around the entire game. Ditto for football -- during the course of a 60 minute game, there is only 7 minutes of actual live playing time. 53 minutes is spent standing around. At least in golf players are constantly in motion; they walk 5 miles per round, and need a higher level of concentration than any other "sport." Believe me -- I have played all of them competitively, and I know. So, my advice to you is: 1/ ask a question without giving away that you are not very sharp; and 2/ open yourself up to new experiences and don't be so judgmental-- you might learn something from the game.

You have to be fit to play professionally. Baseball pitchers are considered athletes and there are some big boys throwing. I bet if you tried to compete in anything against Tiger he would mop the floor with you. Jordan is a big golfer, thinks it is a great sport to play....Michael doesn't know sports?

You also have a foul mouth and a vacuum between both ears, but I don't hate you. I dislike golf, but it takes skill and dexterity to play it. Remember bowling is also a sport. You are to young to cop such an attitude.

Lose the hate. He is an athlete because he can kick your ***. Not in a game of golf.

Because you are brain dead idiot and could not possible understand any reasonable answer with that pea-brain you are using you probably could walk 18 holes carrying a golf bag. Too bad you are impotent and bitter such a sad story. Your jeaoulsy will lead you to total destruction!

1st of all, the rules say you need to be 18 in order to be on here, so you're busted, buddy! : )
2ndly, golf is tough! you have to walk all around, hit the crap out of tiny balls and try to get them into a tiny hole hundreds of yards away.
It takes concentration, forward thinking, a great swing, good gloves so you don't get blisters like me, and stamina.
Darn right it's a sport!
You don't like it, don't watch it.
