Tremendous Star Appeal?

DateMonday, November 1, 2004 at 10:49 AM
The Golf Channel’s Kraig Kann writes, “Here we go! The off-season for the Champions Tour is upon us. And what a great season 2004 was. Stadler's dominance, Irwin's continued high level of play, Jacobsen's energetic impact, and the great late finish by Mark McNulty.”

Since his network televises the Tour (in case you didn't know where to find the seniors), Kann shockingly takes the Tour’s side on the cart debate, buying into the myth that the Champions Tour is actually something other than an exhibition tour.

“Rick George, who heads the tour, and has designs on taking the tour to a higher level of competition and also a higher level of respect, appears ready once and for all to send carts into the sunset.”

When is someone going to realize that carts are the least of the Champions Tour problems?
