This is kind of what my stance was, some athletes, particularly in golf, are geniuses beyond the athleticism it takes to be a pro, decision making, thinking shots ahead etc.
The genius GM is probably less likely to have some athletic gifts that will afford him the ability to be a pro on the course.
There were a few that said both are impossible.
