PGATOUR.com dropped the players birthdates

At least as far as I can tell, PGATOUR.com dropped the players birthdates about a week ago. You can no longer find out what their ages are. Does anyone know why ? Does anyone use another site that still has this info ?

Could be for reasons of consumer fraud protection, believe it or not. It's the only thing that comes to my mind.

Privacy issue, I wonder?

Maybe. I found it sort of odd. Celebrity's B-dates are easily accessible public info. You can still find them, you just have to dig a bit. It was nice to have it all in one place for our discussions on who did what < 30 or > 40 or whatever.

True. Well, I'm off to do some damage with my new Eldrick Woods credit card!

Didn't Tiger have an issue with that a few years back?

Wouldn't surprise me one bit, though I don't know for sure. Happens a lot to "celebrities."
