Ian Poulter: "There's more to life than golf"

Maybe he was a bit jet-lagged and tired from his crazy last minute trip to Hong Kong. Maybe this is the kind of interview we should expect to hear at year's end when players have been flying al over the globe. Or maybe Ian Poulter's just getting old.

But either way it was odd and a little awkward watching this interview Ian Poulter gave to Golf Channel's Todd Lewis upon his arrival at the Turkish Airlines Open.

In it, Poulter makes it pretty clear his priorities have changed. Nothing wrong with that, it's just shocking to hear it from a player of such intensity who, when he's locked in, has been such a passionate golfer.
