You can be old or young and in almost any shape and still play a lot of sports. If you want to play it well, being in good (or great) physical condition is needed. There are some exceptions, but nearly all of the top golfers in the world are in fantastic shape. Strength, flexibility, and extreme coordination is a prerequisite for any tour-pro level golfer. Not really comparable to video gamers imo.
