Anyone who thinks golf is the domain of out-of-shape, wannabe athletes should take a look at the photo above. That’s Suzann Pettersen, the LPGA golfer who currently is sixth in the Rolex rankings. The 31 year old Pettersen (5-9 and 150lbs) is featured in this week’s ESPN Body Issue. Those are the kinds of stats that normally aren’t revealed about women in writing, but since she’s bared everything else ...

Repeat after me: Golfers ARE athletes.
