lot's of great ones already named.

I did enjoy Mr. 3000 lol but yeah, I know, not in the league of the best. makes me think of Major League also.

this could open up lots of other threads thinking about it.

Caddyshack, Blindside, or Necessary Roughness

No one mentioned Space Jam, either.

The Blind Side

And because I love Ice Skating:

Ice Castles

Blades of Glory


And most of the Bring It On! Series, too.

Tin Cup
Major League (1,2, and 3. 1 still being the best)
Invictus
Heaven can Wait
A league of their Own
Talladega Nights
Hard Times (Charles Bronson forever ultimate badass)

And on top of the physically draining part, try and shoot under par. Try and sink a 35ft putt with an audience. Try and not shank one into the drink or woods or try and not hit some bystanders. It takes a little more physical and mental skills to compete at the pro level than most people actually believe is involved. That's why most(somewhere in the neighborhood of 80%) golfers are never able to reach or maintain a handicap of less than 18. Try it before you knock it.

Walking is not a sport. Most of us walk everyday. The golfers walk a couple hundred yards then stop take a break then walk a bit more and another break... Yeah that is a sport, not. Yeah Raymond Floyd is an athlete.

Pyramider do you play golf?

I don't, just asking.

Isn't there a walking event in the Olympics? Racewalking. So maybe walking isn't a sport but competitive walking IS a sport. Sort of like running from a grizzly bear isn't a sport.

So maybe golf is a sport when competitive. And an activity when done for fun.

Someone should make a movie about Racewalking.
