While I appreciate the humor, I also wonder if it undermined the sport’s true nature. Has ‘Happy Gilmore’ made it too accessible, leading to a lack of respect for golf’s traditions?
I can see your point, but I believe it opened doors rather than closed them. Golf is evolving, and that’s not a bad thing.
Agreed! I think golf can be both a serious sport and something fun to be enjoyed with friends. ‘Happy Gilmore’ just reminds us to not take everything too seriously.
Exactly! Let’s not forget the unforgettable quotes! I still yell ‘Get in the hole!’ while watching golf today. It’s a great way to inject some excitement!
Haha, same here! There’s just something about that catchphrase that makes it feel like you’re part of something exciting, even when you’re watching from home.
