"I confess to finding the fact that Larry baptised Loren Roberts in the swimming pool of the Polynesian resort at Disneyworld almost beyond satire"

The Guardian's Marina Hyde isn't too wild about news of another golf movie and has a suggestion for someone wanting to give golf it's next Caddyshack.

And while there are many satirical ways in to the right-wing religious conservatism that has dominated American culture in recent years, you'd have to say that the PGA tour is right up there. It was that fabled man of God Tom Lehman who described Bill Clinton as a "draft-dodging baby-killer", yet he is but one of many players on the tour who sport those wristbands inquiring "what would Jesus do?" – a question to which the answer is "pay less tax, if any".

Then there are the well-attended tour Bible studies on Wednesday nights, taken by the PGA's official chaplain Larry Moody. I confess to finding the fact that Larry baptised Loren Roberts in the swimming pool of the Polynesian resort at Disneyworld almost beyond satire, but doubtless in the right hands it could be made to sing.

As for our mandatory Cinderella, that wouldn't be hard. Roberts himself described the European tour as "really a tough market to crack" for the born-again recruiters, so it has to be a cynical European who declines to be drawn into the Bible studies / Republican rallies / impromptu water-hole baptisms that characterise this bizarre subculture. I'm begging you, Hollywood, consider it – or at the very least, a moratorium on those tame club tie jokes.

On a more serious note, thanks to reader Scott for this nice bit of charity work by Loren Roberts.
