Answer 3

Australia's Greg Norman started playing golf very late (around 17 - 20) and he was world number 1 for a very long period of time.

Its possible for anyone to make it in golf as the lifetime of a golfer is far longer than in any other sport. Work hard and who knows, maybe by 30 you'll be playing at the next level!

Answer 4

This is from free memory but I think Orville Moody who died within the last couple weeks was a guy who learned the game in the military.  Now, I may have my pros confused.  I think it is safe to say that the new era of golfers are all breed and nourished as children to play golf.  I do not see any "late bloomers" on the male or female side in the post 1997 era.   Michael Jordon was a potential great amateur golfer.  In fact, when Michael went to pro baseball a classmate at UNC, Davis Love, III, thought he should have gone for a national amateur golf championship because he had great athletic skills and all the money he would need to not worry about working while pursuing an amateur golf career.
