From the AP:
A 6-month-old girl whose professional water-skier parents put her on junior-size water skis last week glided 686 feet across a man-made lake in what her parents say sets a youth record.
Wait, what, a 6-month-old?
The 30-inch Zyla, who doesn’t yet walk, skied across Lake Silver in Winter Haven, Florida, last Thursday.
Excuse me?
She stood on junior-size water skis that were attached to each other by wood. She gripped a handle bar attached to the skis.
Can 6-month-olds “stand” and “grip”?
USA Water Ski spokesman Scott Atkinson didn’t return a phone call and email inquiry about whether Zyla had set a youth record.
C’mon.
This is the worst sports highlight of the day.
