Original Toronto Star caption: Steve Wisecup of Ohio is giving his all and then some at the World Professional Disc Golf championships on Toronto Island. The game is played with rules similar to traditional golf, but the idea is to get around a course using Frisbees of various sizes and weights. It's not overly lucrative but with $300 to $400 a weekend , you can get by, says Wisecup.
