There is absolutly a wall in golf. Many people simply do not have the physical coordination and mental strength to get very good at golf. Just like baseball. Or any other sport. That part I bolded is a pretty shitty point to make, because someone with a 20 handicap is a terrible golfer. No way around that. The 3 years of lessons is also a good sign of that. Not nearly enough time to get good at it. That person has a long way ahead of them, just like any other sport where someone has been playing for 3 years. Handicaps are for leveling the playing field, but that really just makes a shit golfer who won a tournament look good on paper. He still is a very poor golfer with a handicap of fucking 20. That really just shows how 98% of golfers are really average to bad players when a handicap needs to make things "even".

We're discussing pro level, so a handicap really doesn't factor in because they are the best out there.
