Indeed it was. The new -look Walrus played extremely well and finally ended up finishing second after a lengthy four -hole play-off. There was as much said about Stadler's figure as there was about his game. . A lean. mean David Duval has shown that golf and fitness can live together amicably...and now with the Walrus shedding-. close to 50 pounds and working out too, well' look out golf world.. . Golf has long been touted as the.'°lazy: man's'sport.'' From an athlete's standpoint this .may be difficult to argue. After all. there are very .few sports that one can actually ride, and imbibe -while competing. It is true, you can walk and either carry or pull your clubs on a cart. or you can take a power cart to getaround the course. It is true that you can eat and. drink during competition. 11 is true that ,n� safety equipment is worn. It is true that the game involves, no body contact and no referees are required. it is also true that because of these things many' people don't take the game of golf seriously as a sport. However. those that are serious about their game know that physical fitness is a definite asset and prepare for their game accordingly. Watching Jack. Arnie. and Gary Player in the same group at this year's Masters was an excellent illustration of how a strong_ fitness program makes a difference. Gary Player was always Mr: Fitness on tour. He was small in stature and relied on flexibility to get maximum distance. Arnie muscled and slashed his way to victory with lots of upper body strength.' while Jack started out as a paunchy play maker .who didn't start a fitness program until Wellinto his career. At this year's Masters. Player still had the same full swing while the other two were showing signs of shortening up. You don't need a lot of muscle to be good. at golf. Indeed some of the finest players in the world are actually very small and slight in stature. Certainly some of the big hitters are also the big players, but that doesn't always equate with the best scores. Anyone who follows the PGA tote will understand the statistics that support this. Some of the longest hall hitters were unsuccessful until they shortened their drives and went with accuracy over distance. You don't have to be totally fit from a cardiovascular standpoint either. Golf is not. a game of speed, although many wish that it would speed up just a tad. You don't have to race between shots. However, walking briskly does get the heart beat up a bit and there's always the odd hill and dale or errant shot that can increase the pulse. important part, of the three- - 'point fitness chart. Cor golf.. would be flexibility. You do have to be flexible -to get the most out of your golf swing. There are many muscle- bound athletes. who can pound the hall around the course. hutit's the more .flexible golfer who gets the most torque.and the muss power out of the' swing. • In recent years'serious golfers ha%e taken a more educated approach,to [herr physics! - fitness: It s.particularly noted -on .,the PGA 'Senior tourwhere many of the players are working out regularly. watching their diets.. and even -employing personal trainers 10 gi' e them the advantage oyer their peers. ` Nov.. we're riot playing for the big .trucks.: Heck. we're not playing for any rucks at a1L but we want lower scores. Lower scores area lot more fun in:the world -of golf._ We can get lower scores- by just doing a • few simple things from a personal fitness point. • • Instead of heading from the parking lot to the first tee. `try arristng 20 to 30"minute' early- and warming_ up a bit._, Start off by doing a few'stretches and simple calisthenics.. So you're shy...do them at home before heading to the course. Just.warrn up tliose muscles a bit. It will pay otY. A few torso'twists. shoulder shrugs and arm circles will.get that upper body ready, to go. Sometoe touches. groin stretches and calf .tretches will wake up the legs. Finish ort the warm-up by taking a bucket of halls to the range- and beginning with - some nice half -wedges. Then work up to full wedges and then right through the ,clubs odd numbers or' evens - and finish off with some drives.' • Then head over to the practice green near the first tee. While waiting for your tee time - you can warm up the putter too. • Unless you have a physical need to take a power cart. why not .reserve those times for special occasions. Walk the course. Even if. you walk some holes and ride others it's better than just riding. Walking builds up the muscles in your lower body necessary for - power. Walking helps the cardiovascular. system ifyou walk briskly and this will also increase the enjoyment level of the golfers behind.you. •. Just a reminder though, to consult your' physician before beginning any fitness or diet program. - Seaforth Golf and Country club news fur • this week: Mens Night winner was Fred Leitch.
