I was sitting there saying, "thank you Tiger"?fitness for golf is here to stay. If it takes the Number One golfer in the world to convince you?then I'm all for it. How many times have you walked off the course or practice range with a twinge or two in your body? How about when you got home? Did it get worse? What's that tell you?
