Why does golf have the most elite names of any sport?

Tiger Woods
Rory McIlroy
Scottie Scheffler
Wyndham Clark
Arnold Palmer
Gary Player

All bangers destined for fame

Ex-VC. I like making bread (literally and figuratively) 

For sure — golf has a legacy of exclusivity. But what’s wild is that a bunch of these guys actually didn’t come from money (Tiger, Rory, Arnold, and Gary at least). The names just sound generationally elite

socioeconomic class most likely to play the sport also has the most elite ancestry (from a purely caste-based perspective)
