I've often written about how Unionville equestrians don't let their (frequent) injuries get in the way of their sport. Now, it seems, I should add golfers to the list of hardy athletes. An avid sportswoman I know broke her right thumb in a fall at the golf course. She then completed her round, going for an X-ray to confirm the fracture only at the insistence of her husband. She was told to wear a splint, but she said it makes the thumb hurt even more. So she's simply been carrying on, taking a minimal dose of ibuprofen.
"By the back nine, I'm like, 'Ouch,' " she admits.
