Scholarships should be strictly academic. When an attorney told me he went to college on a Golf scholarship, I ROTFALMAO.

My SIL went to college on a golf scholarship (he played on a 2-time state champion hs team). It was a great deal for him, got a biz degree, and now manages a country club.

Golf Scholarship? Oxymoron term!!
May be sports subsidy is a better description.

Another thing I do not like is many scholarships are based on financial need. So if you work harder and become affluent, your children will be discriminated! WTF?

Really? Why? Golf is one of the (if not the) highest revenue producing sports activities in the US. If you haven't seriously played, you'll have to take my word for it; golf is a beautiful metaphor for life.
I will never hesitate hire a golfer into my professional team - the game, like life, teaches you humility with brutal reality.

Everything nowadays is blamed on racism.
