J A from Canada writes: Since when is golf considered an athletic event? As far as I know, the only exercise they get is by walking all 18 holes. I'm tired of people saying Tiger Woods is the greatest athlete in the world, I could walk 18 holes easily. Frankly, if they want to add a sport to the olympics, they should bring back baseball, I'd hate to say this, but baseball is a far more athletic endeavour than golf will ever be.

Wally Grisold from Toronto, Canada writes: Pretty soon they will try to get the real athletic sports in "ie" full contact "Tiddley Winks or Jacks". If golf want in try the Putt-Putt golf, a perfect sport for TV and you could use the same course every 4 years, just transport it around in the IOC's jumbo jet. I can just see the scandal when an athlete gets caught using loaded Tiddleys or Jacks.
