I think a top golfer is more skillful than a top pitcher
Just my $0.02.

What kind of nonsense is this? You don't even have to be an athlete to be a golfer

Over and over, day in and day out. Golf, not close.
Strike 7 out of 10 times in baseball you’re great and paid millions.
Make 7 bogies a round in a pro tournament you make nothing.

Golfers have incredible hand-to-eye coordination which requires very little athleticism.

I think being able to dominate major league hitters and throw 100mph is about as impressive as it gets
Tons of middle aged men play golf so they get to see just how bad they are compared to pros. Thus it makes them always say golf is the hardest
If more middle aged men tried to actually throw from 60’6” they would realize how fricking bad they actually suck at that

It’s all about seeing and reaction time and you get more chances… keeping a golf drive straight or sinking a putt is a harder skill and you only might have one try and have to live with the results

There are far more human beings capable of hitting a drive straight then there are that can throw 96 or hit 96

Dudes that can throw 95 plus deep into a game arr insanely strong. They front squat near 400 lbs in moat cases.
A guy like tiger or dechambeau wpuld also be squatting quite a bit.

Maybe they can’t throw 96, but if they time it they can hit 96
You’re talking about every dude in professional baseball, and most of college and some high school players
Meanwhile dudes who can hit straight drives are most likely on a tour somewhere. It only takes like one bad one a round to not make a tour
