AS a keen golfer I thoroughly enjoyed reading last week’s GulfWeekly front page about nine-year-old Taimur Malik’s amazing talent on the course and wish him well in the future.

I was wondering what nationality Taimur is as only the week before in the GolfWeekly section it highlighted the results of the HSBC/The Futures Company research paper on the future of the sport which suggested that Asian players will make up one third of the world’s top 10 players by 2020.

The way Taimur’s talent is progressing he might be knocking on the door as a 17-year-old!

Editor’s note: Taimur’s parents Navid and Shahzadi come from Lahore, Pakistan. Their son was born in South Africa.

I was disappointed to see sport on the front pages as well as on the back pages of Bahrain’s newspapers in recent days.

GulfWeekly is no exception. Last week you had sport (wee Wonder Taimur) on the cover. Surely there is enough about the subject in the pages at the back of the paper for those who are interested?

There is no escaping sport. You can’t turn the TV or radio on at the moment without being blasted from all sides with London Olympics this and London Olympics that!

It’s making my blood boil as I left the UK to forget about London and it is too hot outside to take a walk to cool down.

What is there for us, sport haters?

I cannot be the only one in Bahrain who despises watching overgrown schoolboys and girls running round in circles, splashing about in a pool or playing with their bows and arrows.
Grow up, get a life!
Maybe I’ll stay in bed and hide under the covers (with the air conditioning blasting full on) until it’s all over.
