... by winning the Wyndham Champs, over a fine field. The third oldest winner in PGA history... Tiger at 38 is perhaps just a little young yet. A 50 year old wins the World Arm Wrestling, 34 year old Fed beats world number one the Joker. The two fastest sprinters are 29 and 33. Ireland chock full of golden oldies is ranked number two...ancient Tahir is our best bowler. In boxing you have old men Manny and Mayweather competing for all the marbles.
The evidence just keeps piling up. Perhaps the world reached some kind of athletic peak ten years ago. Even in surfing the old buggers are better...I'm just waiting for a 40 year old skate boarding champ.
The lesson for HM is to have no fear...pick Victor, pick Fourie du Preez, pick Schalk, pick Jean, pick Alberts, pick Habana. Evidence suggests they are probably getting better.
