I think there may be a movement to include golf as an event thus allowing PGA pros to get in on the action. So my answer is 'Go Mustangs' !

Posted: Fri Aug 08, 2008 3:11 pmDifficult? No it won't. Dara Torres is awesome, and gorgeous, but she's not a Mustang.mrydel wrote:It will be difficult to pull for Moravcova over that 87 year old grandmother from the US, but I think I will.
Good luck, Martina!

The US Pro golfers complain about the Ryder Cup participation due to no pay or benefits and that is within their own venue. I doubt that the big guys will be willing to give up their time and money for the Olympics. Some PGA pros might be more than happy to play but I do not think we will see Tiger going for the gold.
