[QUOTE="Vieux Talonneur, post: 1169174, member: 73144"] Anything that involves sitting on a horse. The skill required is high and all with the rider but physically wise the bar’s pretty low - hard training’s not going to make too much odds although weight control is a consideration in some events. Different for the horse, obviously. As far as Littler goes it was a mildly interesting diversion. Whether he’s the new Phil Taylor or it was just a glorious unexplained one off remains to be seen. Plenty of teenage prodigies, if that’s what he is, have gone on to achieve precisely nothing in the senior ranks in a variety of sports. Whether it’s healthy for a kid to have received the attention he has is another matter. But a 16 year old who’s never won anything in what may or may not be a sport does feel a pretty odd tangent for a GOAT thread. [/QUOTE]
