Mark McCumber and Bruce Lietzke will join the tour this year. Fuzzy Zoeller and Tom Purtzer are coming in 2002. They re not the regular tour, but these guys can still play. And they re a lot more fun to be around. Baseball once tried to have a senior gig, but scouts had to clock base runners with an egg timer and the novelty soon wore off.
Golf is the one sport where the senior concept works.
The natural regeneration process keeps fresh talent coming each year. I wonder what it will be like in 2026 when the new group of rookies will include a guy named Woods.
