So do you guys consider golf to be your favorite sport?

[saevel25]

1) Golf Majors

2) NCAA Football

3) NCAA Basketball

4) Golf - other tournaments

5) NFL

[Slice of Life]

1) NFL

2) NBA

3) MLB

4) PGA

And PGA is a long way down from MLB. I don't watch it all that much.

It's not just my favorite sport it's become my only sport, although the NY football Giants have my interest again...

I used to be a big baseball fan but the sport has bored me of late, and there's only so much time in life.

I enjoy all the tours, but I seem to watch a lot of LPGA for some reason, I think it's the skirts.

One reason I think I like golf so much is that I root for everyone, it's the whole field against the course, no heartbreak like others sports, no yelling, no despair when your team loses a big game, I like that about golf.

It's a toss up for me.  I enjoy watching all sports, especially at the collegiate level.  I voted no because of fantasy football.  I really enjoy watching NFL now and it's probably my favorite...dang that pigskin..

To play, of course, to watch, not even close.  Much rather watch college basketball (especially Kansas) and college football (kills me to watch Kansas but I do) then my home town pro teams (Royals and Chiefs) ahead of golf.  And that being said, prefer other sports over everyday tournaments, the majors, Ryder Cup, Presidents Cup, I'll watch those pretty much from wire to wire.

To watch:

1) College Football

2) NFL

3) Golf (PGA and Euro Tours)

4) NBA

5) College Basketball

For me, it's NFL on Sunday only when my team is playing. I can take or leave it the rest of the time.

I've only recently started watching the Golf Channel and checking out some tournaments on tv.

[Big C]

To watch:

1) College Football

2) NFL

3) Golf (PGA and Euro Tours)

4) NBA

5) College Basketball

This is about my order exactly, although I'd probably flip 4 and 5.

More than football? More than baseball?

I'm referring to watching/rooting, etc.

I'm assuming playing golf is probably everybody's favorite sport.

Also...any golf video game fans here?? Haha

Golf is not my favorite spectator sport, not by a long shot.  As time goes on, I watch less and less golf.  I play golf as often as I can, but only watch when there is literally nothing much else to do, unless it's a major, or the Ryder Cup or the like.

I play Links 2003 (mod 1.07) on the computer occasionally, usually in winter when I can't play real golf.  I don't play any of the EA offerings (like Tiger Woods) because I think they suck, at least as they are ported for the PC they do.  Maybe they are better on a game console, but I don't own one, so that's irrelevant.

Golf is my favorite sport. I follow football a bit and watch large tournaments, but not as much as golf. I don't watch as many golf tournaments as before. Mostly majors and other large ones these days.

Oh and I do follow Esports more than any sport.

I voted yes. Falls behind Olympics (both winter and summer versions) but obviously not a regular threat.

BTW, appreciate you calling it a sport. I had a friendly argument (who hasn't?) about this with a someone last year. I had to get a full read on the thread here on TST about this subject to get some ammo.
