Don't argue with trolls.

Great to see Casey make the US Open.

Incredible. I'm putting over a valid point about golf cart usage. I name Ken Venturi as a VERY valid reason why they are an advantage. And you call me a troll.  You don't have any idea about Ken Venturi. So I will educate you.
  In 1964 Ken Venturi won the US Open at Congressional . It was a 36 hole final day played in temps over 100 degrees. He came close to collapsing due to heat exhaustion.
   You are saying a cart  would be NO advantage?

   Sure!

Golf cart an advantage? Not in my book!  Should carts be permitted under special circumstances....YES!  Players with a disability should be encouraged to pursue (or continue to pursue) professional golf.  It's not how YOU get to the hole......it's how the BALL gets there.  Players like Casey Martin and Eric Compton should be permitted use of a golf cart IF they feel it is necessary. The Champions Tour permits them assuming that all pros over 50 have the need  solely due to their age.

You point is only valid if everyone has the option to ride. That makes it fair for everyone.

You may claim to "writes good" but golly you can't "read good"!!

A guy who has ridden a cart for 35 holes in 100 degrees has no advantage over a guy who has walked 35 holes in 100 degrees.

   Sure thing! :)

HamShanker:

    Casey Martin took his argument for using golf carts and prevailed before the U.S. Supreme Court.   Kindly name the"left wing pinko liberal democratic judges" on the U.S. Supreme Court that ruled on Casey's behalf with their interpretation of the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Let's see if I have this right, Martin files a case against the PGA Tour with the EEO and based on a decision gets into District Court, the Court of Appeals and finally under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Supreme Court he won.  

So,  Casey won his case before the U.S. Supreme Court and the majority of that court's justices were/are "left wing pinko" judges.    Which means, the Affordable Care Act will be upheld this session by the U.S. Supreme Court?     Right?      lol
