I don't think Serena could play golf and win at the LPGA level. She makes a living by overpowering and intimidating her opponents in a 1 on 1 game. She doesn't have the temperament to last 4 days, the pressures of a golf tournament are a lot different than multiple tennis matches IMO. You can play badly on one hole and make an 11 and miss the cut, but no matter how badly you play in tennis it's scored in such a way you can come back from even the worst mistakes. Consistency isn't as necessary as long as your best is really good. Even then, you can draw a fairly close comparison between first serve speed and clubhead speed as a measure of power; she's around the low 100s on average where the top men go from 120 to 135 on average, generally topping out around 150 for individual serves. It's not a stretch to say there's a 20mph difference, which is huge. In clubhead speed terms, Serena could expect to be hitting it almost as well as the average senior male PGA pro. And that would be the best part of her game, most likely. A lot of her speed advantage comes from height (better angle over the net) and her aggressive playing style, she's not generating racquet speed that's worlds apart from her peers except on the compact groundstrokes. She wins by getting a lot of aces, you can't really do that in golf. You can make more eagles than most people and beat up the par 5s, but it doesn't really work out if you're making bogeys all the time.

Is that relevant for LPGA distances? They aren't playing from ladies tees. They play from close to what would be the tips at most courses. The longer courses I play here rarely if ever have markers out on the back boxes that would open it up to PGA distances. For good reason, few if any amateurs could realistically hack it. I played a course tonight that has championship tees of 7676 but there was nothing back there. I played one up from the back and it was 6897, close to LPGA average. I didn't see any men playing from the 7404 blacks. Most were playing from the 6230 tees.

Whether Serena could contend with LPGA (or PGA) players might be veering off topic, but I'll bite.

She makes a living by playing a game with great skill and a highly competitive spirit. Much like Tiger and many other professional golfers.

Great golfers rarely make 11's. Granted, my argument is based on the pretense that Serena could theoretically be a great golfer. I would think that if any type of golfer could come back from an 11, someone as fiercely competitive as Serena probably could.

At Wimbledon this year, Serena's average first serve speed was on par with David Ferrer, who was a semi-finalist. Some of the better male tennis players aren't much faster than Serena. Sure there are some players that can average much higher first serve speeds, but similar to golf, first serve speed (or driver distance) doesn't equate to success. I would venture to say that she would be one of the longest, if not the longest, LPGA player.

We have no idea what the best part of her game would be. Her biggest advantages are power and accuracy of ground strokes, her knowledge of the game, and her competitive spirit.

So much of your argument is very "chicken and egg" in that you don't think she would be a good golfer based on the way she plays tennis. But if she had been playing golf from an early age, who knows what her body type and temperament would be? She is very strong, athletic, coordinated, and competitive. I see no reason why she wouldn't be a world class golfer had she taken up golf at four instead of tennis.

Can't say I buy into being a good athlete translates to the potential to play golf at a high level. Wasn't it just a week or two ago when that celeb tournament was played in Tahoe? Some pretty ugly golf there. Michael Phelps is a good example of good athlete and bad golf. Heck it's the " I played varsity baseball" and I'm doing crossfit types I dread getting paried up with. That's good for a day of overswinging and one weak slice after another in my experience.

My argument was never that Serena Williams is a great golfer nor that any athletic person is better at golf than a non-athletic person.  The context was regarding the draw of women to the sport of golf.  While golfers will likely never be mistaken for NFL linebackers, that has less to do with the draw of the sport and more to do with a 240lb, muscle-bound torso not being necessary (and perhaps not ideal) for golf.  Yet, you do get athletic guys who could possibly have pursued other sports 40-50 years ago now pursuing golf instead (at least in theory).

Is it the same for women?  I used Serena as an example because she is clearly stronger and much more athletic than the average or even the above-average woman.  If that type of athlete were also good at golf, perhaps more of them would have the ability to make this thread relevant.  But as it stands now, the women we see on the LPGA tour arguably cannot make up the physical differences enough to compete with the men and, on average and as a general rule, never will.

That is my basic argument.  I have no idea if Serena can even make contact with a golf ball (although my guess is she could).  In fact, the best golfer I've ever been paired with was an NCAA tennis player.  Coincidence?  Possibly.

I'm not saying that a great athlete is necessarily a great golfer. But the majority of great athletes are naturally gifted in some way. Some more than others. If they had put the same effort into golf as they had into tennis, swimming, football, or whatever, they could potentially be a great golfer.

A similar discussion has been had regarding the US's history in international soccer competitions. Relative to other sports, the US has been pretty unsuccessful in soccer. There are several reasons for this, but I believe one of them is the fact that most of the best American athletes play baseball, basketball, or football because those are the most popular sports with the highest pay. What if Adrian Peterson, LeBron James, and Bryce Harper had grown up playing serious soccer instead of their respective sports? Who knows, but it's an interesting discussion.

The question was not about whether the ladies can compete with John Q. Public that "can't realistically hack it" from the back tees. (Of course they could).

The question was whether they can compete with the best players in the world from those distances that create a more narrow target off of the tee.

On many holes from the middle tees you are out close enough to the dogleg that you can just bomb away with little fear of getting in trouble. The same hole can have an entirely different look from the back tees where it takes most of the total drive distance down the shoot just to clear the dogleg. It's just basic geometry. The widest dispersion is at the end of the shot. That is a bigger factor on many holes than just the extra distance alone and can place more premium on hitting the ball straight.

On average, top athletes are naturally very good at golf. I can think of tons of examples. Just look at the leader board and scores for that tournament: http://www.scoring.r2it.com/golf/acc/Leaderboard.aspx?TournamentID=1&RoundID;=3

Phelps has only been playing less than a year and everything I have heard says that he has tremendous potential. The natural athleticism and hand-eye coordination that most athletes have usually translates very well to golf.

You don't need to buy into it, but it's true.

Athletic speed and fast twitch muscle fibers are essential to someone's athletic ability...including golf. Doesn't mean anyone athletic can be good at golf, but you need to have speed attributes to compete at the highest level. I bet Tiger Woods would be good at pretty much any sport he'd dedicate time to, including track and field.

Want to know someone's athletic potential? Have them run in a straight line...typically the faster guy will be able to generate more natural clubhead speed. Speed is speed, and can't be taught.

I think this is a good general rule.  But Golf and Baseball (for example) are activities with enough ridiculously fat-ass exceptions in the Pro ranks to lay down one observation.  These are not athletic activities by any means, but being an athletic person still helps the cause.

lol Both Stadlers, Kenny Perry, Daly, Calcavecchia, Duffy Waldorf, Carl Pettersson, etc.

Prince Fielder... and way too many other "DH" style big boned players to mention. Though, I think Ramirez lost some weight playing in Japan.

As a general rule, my perspective on this is that the more tools (external, non-biological utilites/resources) are involved in the core functions of the sport, the less athleticism dictates who is better.  Extreme examples: 100M sprint uses no tools whatsoever.  The athlete runs on the track.  They could run naked and barefoot on a dirt track, and Usain Bolt on steroids will still be the fastest person.  On the other hand, in Nascar the tool is the vehicle, and you could theoretically have the sloppiest athlete around still win a race if he has the driving skill and still possesses the endurance necessary.

Baseball, golf and tennis are sports that start to meet somewhere in the middle.  But they are still so reliant on tools (bats, clubs, rackets and balls), that a lesser athlete won't necessarily be at an unmanageable disadvantage, nor will a superior athlete necessarily be the better performer.

yup - but, I think the move to people that have a SERIOUS fitness regimen is taking over and the fatties will be left behind eventually.  Look at the field now.  In general, it's paying off for these guys.  It's hard to argue against the idea that fitness and strength improves both distance and fine control.

You make a good point, but I'll disagree, at the top levels, the most incremental improvements make a huge difference.  Your weekend amatuer, etc?  absolutely.  there's enough other variability involved, that for these non-sport activities, fitness might not be such a big affect.  The PROs?  I disagree.

----- as far as athleticism, I'd put golf in there just above card playing and car driving.  But nowhere near what's required for Tennis - shameful to list those three as equal... ; )    As far as NASCAR, to be able to withstand the environment, I'd still give the edge to the fitter driver - endurance is a legit measure of one kind of fitness.  Still, strength, speed, and control are aspects of golf.  It won't make you fit (it might save the life of a couch potato), but being fit will make one a better golfer.

Yea, not sure how Tennis got thrown in there. It is one of the most physically demanding sports in the world. Anyone that doesn't believe that has never played it before. Those pro matches go on for hours.

I think that hand-eye coordination is not being given enough consideration in this discussion. The reason that so many athletes are good at golf in addition to their main sport is their coordination more so than their natural athleticism.

Have to agree, i took tennis in college as an elective, its pure crazy. You look at the pro matches that go on for a few hours. Its like HIIT training + hitting a tennis ball

To me NASCAR isn't a sport. Sorry, it takes tremendous concentration, endurance, mental fortitude, but i wouldn't call it a sport. There isn't an athletic move being done. golf sits above it because it requires an athletic motion.

We don't disagree.  You're saying that the same person, given the same level of skill, coordination, etc, will perform better if given proportionately more athleticism or increasing their level of fitness.  I completely agree.  In other words, take Jim Furyk, and assume that, ceteris paribus , you magically grant him a slight measure of more strength and speed, his game would benefit as a result.  Also, take a guy like Stadler, assume his same level of skill, and drop 20 lbs of fat without dropping his muscle/strength level, and his game would improve.

There is a school of thinkers that believes increasing strength/fitness levels in a sport like golf can have detrimental effects on their games, but I mostly disagree with those folks unless we are assuming a big change in body proportions, flexibility and muscle endurance.  I remember at one time (and even as recently as the past 12 months), some golf analysts were speculating that part of what went wrong with Tiger's game is that he became too muscular, which I think is bull.

I never said they weren't athletic.  But Andre Aggassi is an order of magnitude less athletic than Yohan Blake.  These are gradations we are talking about.  And because Tennis requires more skill with a tool than track and field does, him being less athletic than Blake didn't hurt Aggassi much.

    • I did read the fine print tonight. It said replace with “similar features & function”.  8 yeas ago my purchase had features that today are available on the lower end models and the current version of my model has more “bells & whistles” than what I got 8 years ago.  So I am thinking they honored the agreement and I can’t argue the offer. since getting a credit for the full purchase price all I am really out over the past 8 years was the cost of the extended warranty, which was less than a low end  treadmill would have cost me. now the question is which model to replace with.  I’ll stay with Nordic Track or I forfeit the $1,463 credit so I will get Nordic Track.  And they honored the warranty and were not hard to work with which is a plus.
    • Generally speaking, extended warranties are a terrible deal and should almost always be avoided. They are a huge profit center for the companies that offer them, which should tell you almost everything you need to know about how much value most consumers get when purchasing them.  This is correct, and the old adage applies - only buy insurance when you can't afford the loss. This usually doesn't apply to most consumer goods.  To your second question, no I don't believe the offer is fair. They are replacing it, but it is not being replaced at "no cost to you". Since the amount being disputed (over $500) is non-trivial, I would probably push the issue. Don't waste your time on the phone with a customer service agent or a supervisor. They have probably given you all they have the authority to do. Rather, I would look at the terms of your agreement and specifically legal disputes. The odds are you probably agreed to binding arbitration in the event of a dispute. The agreement will outline what steps need to be followed, but it will probably look something like this.  1. Mail the Nordic Track legal department outlining your dispute and indicate you are not satisfied with the resolution offered.  2. Open up a case with the AAA (American Arbitration Association), along with the required documentation. 3. Wait about 4-5 weeks for a case to be opened - at which point someone from Nordic Track's legal department will offer to give you the new model at no cost to you.  They certainly don't want to spend the time and energy to fight you over $500. 4. Enjoy your new Nordic Track at no cost to you. I recently entered binding arbitration against a fairly large and well known company that screwed me over and refused to make it right. In my demand letter, I made a pretty sizeable request that included compensation for my time and frustration. Once it hit their legal department, they cut me a check - no questions asked. It was far cheaper to settle with me than to send their legal team to defend them in the arbitration.
    • I never thought of looking at it on multiple purchases like you said.  Yes, the extended may help me on 1 or 2 items but not the other 5 or 6.
    • Day 84 - Forgot to post yesterday, but I did some more chipping/pitching.    Back/neck were feeling better today, so I did a much overdue Stack session.
