you apparently missed where it says
"making the game accessible to a world of golfers"
and finish the sentence,
"The PGA of America is the largest working sports organization in the world, comprised of more than 28,000 dedicated men and women promoting the game of golf to everyone, everywhere"

not to take anything away from golf, which I enjoy playing, but to say it is as much a sport as baseball is - come on!
Anyone can play golf - all you have to do is practice...much like pool, darts, bowling, etc, etc...and yes, the pro's have to walk, blah blah blah..
pro golfers are all - yes, I said all - wealthy kids who grew up around golf courses, started playing golf at a young age, and have been spoiled, pampered brats their entire lives - there may be one or two exceptions to the rule, but for 99% of them its true - its a rich man's game, not a sport
