"Nothing is going to change overnight."

Nice to see Ty Votaw defusing some of the Olympics-will-grow-game-overnight hysteria in talking to John Huggan:

"Golf started as a game for the wealthy in the United States at the end of the 19th century and has evolved into a game for every level of society," claims the former LPGA commissioner, albeit more than slightly unconvincingly. "Today, 72 per cent of courses in the US are public access. We would see something similar being replicated worldwide. But this is a very long-term undertaking. Nothing is going to change overnight. We are probably talking about 60 years or so before significant change can be effected in most countries."
