Chess and tennis and poker are all activities/sports/games where both/all players must degrade the ability of opponents to play well if they are to compete and move up in competititon.
Golf is a 'nicer' game.
You play your game. Your opponents play their's.
Opponents don't interfere with each other.
Many sports/games/competitions are like that.
Chess is fun to play.
Ballroom Dancing is an exercise to the body and playing chess is an exercise to the brain. Enjoy and cheers to all.
