A Golfer's Right To Ride
Golfer Casey Martin scored big on February 11. But this victory took place in a courtroom. Martin, 25, has difficulty walking because of a leg disease. He sued the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) for the right to ride in a cart during tournaments. The PGA argued that a cart would give him an unfair advantage. After he won the case, Martin said, "Ten years from now, I hope the PGA will scratch their heads and say, 'Why did we fight this guy?'"
