PGA CHAMPIONSHIPAugust 13, 2009D.J. TrahanCHASKA, MINNESOTA Q. Can you talk about what you think it would mean to the game of golf globally to be able to compete in the Olympics? D.J. TRAHAN: I think golf is definitely a great sport. Obviously it not being in the Olympics -- the Olympics is a big deal. It would be another tremendous lift for the game of golf to be a part of that. Certainly we should hope they vote for it. It would be a good thing for the game. Q. Now it doesn't have the history, but could you imagine some day the gold medal meaning almost like a major? D.J. TRAHAN: I don't think so, no. I don't think -- because obviously golf wasn't part of the Olympics. It's not part of the Olympics. So I think a major championship still means more to me than winning a gold medal in the Olympics. Obviously that would be wonderful to participate in it and to win a gold medal, but I don't think anything really compares to a major. Q. What do you think about 72 holes stroke play format? D.J. TRAHAN: I think that's the way it needs to be played. You can't play match play. There's too many countries. It just wouldn't work. Obviously you need to have a stroke play if golf is going to be played in the Olympics, really the only way to make it reasonable. End of FastScripts |
