Golfer Rocco Mediate Tries Poker
Golfer Rocco Mediate is playing in the main event of the WSOP next week. Mediate's a five time winner on the PGA Tour. Pokerstars.com is sponsoring Rocco Mediate and paying his $10,000 entry fee. Apparently he plays online quite a bit, and he's not bad, but I've never met a poker player who knew that he sucked, so who knows? Interestingly enough, there are probably quite a few poker players who would lose a good bit of money to him if they played golf for money.
I seem to remember somewhere that Stu Ungar used to lose a lot of money betting on golf games, but don't quote me on that one.
