Until I read this article I would have never made the connection that frequent golfing could potentially be fatal. Check it out,

There are 34,000 golf courses in the world. They make beautiful pictures. But what keeps the grass of the fairways and greens so uniform and undisturbed by weeds?

Chemical herbicides. One of the herbicide is Roundup, manufactured by Monsanto, the giant corporation owned by Bayer.

It’s now common knowledge that a link has been drawn between Roundup and non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. “The World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer…decided in 2015 that glyphosate is ‘probably carcinogenic to humans’.” (Mother Jones, March 14, 2019)

Hello Hi Henry.

You are right. I never thought of it that way. So much for plenty of exercise and fresh air. What about football stadiums, the modern day Colosseums? I think there should be more of them with far more spectators than golfers. And ,as usual, you pay for the privilege.
