"Golf has become so manicured, so perfect. The greens, the fairways. I don't like golf carts. I like walking. Some clubs won't let you in unless you have a caddy and a cart"
- Robert Redford
About this Quote
Robert Redford's quote speaks to the altering nature of golf. It has actually become a lot more formal and structured game, with courses that are diligently manicured and maintained. This has led to the introduction of golf carts, which Redford does not like. He chooses to walk the course, and some clubs even need a caddy and a cart to be allowed. This shift in the game has actually removed some of the freedom and spontaneity that Redford enjoyed in his more youthful days. He is regreting the reality that golf has actually ended up being so structured and regulated, which it is no longer the very same game he used to play.
