If I had the chance to start my sporting career all over again I'd have become a professional golfer. What's not to love about it?

Do you ever see Rory McIlroy shanking the ball into the rough and someone shouting, "You're s**** Mcllroy"? Try shanking the ball out of play at Tynecastle and it would be a chorus of "Stevenson, you fat ba****"." I keep hearing that footballers are paid too much but nobody criticises golfers who are literally scooping up millions of pounds from week to week.

Nobody bats an eyelid at them yet it's these footballers who are earning far too much money? Do me a favour. Private jets, best of everything and not once have I heard anyone shouting, "you are effing rubbish, how could you miss that putt." What a life they have, give me a bit of that any day with nobody giving out abuse.

Football's a world where the rules of engagement and etiquette are far different. Look at Hearts, we've yet to see the ball roll on a new season and I'm already prepared to have a bit of a pop at my old club.
