Message: [QUOTE="Chonky, post: 3984193, member: 10718"] Its not “rules are rules”. He just can’t do his job right now so he can’t play. Sure they [I]could [/I]get around the risk. He [I]could [/I]completely dressed at the hotel, put on a mask, walk alone in the lobby to avoid people there, drive himself to the tournament, carve out his own little slice of driving range, his own little putting green, take a roundabout way to the tee, play by himself, win, then get in his car and drive off. I agree. He [I]could[/I] play and mitigate the risk down to zero. They absolutely shouldn’t. When does that end? What if twenty people are positive? Twenty single groups? Why make everyone accommodate HIM because he accepted the risk of declining the vaccine. This isn’t a disability where he can demand ADA accommodations ( see: Casey Martin). Golfing is most of his job. All that other crap that sponsors provide the money for him to do is also his job. He has a health condition at the moment which prevents him from doing his job. And any accommodations he would need are unreasonable. Full stop. Osaka rightfully withdrew from the French Open because a health condition prevented her from fulfilling all of her duties. Similar thing here. Even more legitimate here because he has a communicable disease. [/QUOTE]
