THIS MAY BE A THREAD THAT YOU DO NOT WANT TO READ...
How late can you start playing golf & how good can you become?
Anyone happen to know which of the top-1000 on the OWGR who picked up a club at the latest age - or if any of the PGA TOUR players started playing quite late in life?
That or any related story on the topic of "starting out late & obtaining HCP 0" would be really interesting.
(Would also be interesting to learn of any scientific proof/study that indicates whether motoric skills are developed up to a certain age, and can not significantly be developed thereafter - and are crucial for good golf)
The former Swedish tennis champion, Mats Wilander, comes to mind. He once (seriously) said he wanted to become the first to win the US Open in tennis and golf. LOL
(All the above said after just having beaten my personal best by 4 full shots (by 5 on that specific course, my home course) - but not in order to boost my hybris. I don't need that right now, I need a reality check ).
