Interesting take from the world's number one golfer on how it's changed his diet especially in regard to training.

I don't do twitter.
Has he changed to low carb then? Or something else?

Talks about making better dietary choices & not spiking so I'm guessing yes

This is a quietly increasing trend among athletes in many fields, mostly in the US plus some Type 2s and "worried well". We should celebrate their interest as this recruitment is much more important for the manufacturers' economic results for than the very small targeted clinical T1s that so need these. Maybe next generation smart health gadgets will include CGM BG monitoring as well as pulse, BP and activity trackers available to adults in all developed economies. Step by step.

Isn't this what Abbott promoted through their alliance with Supersapiens over two years ago?
