If you don't like Triple double (I see why) we can change it to a 45+ point game. Of Course Wilt, Michael and Tendu are exceptions.
I am guessing, pure guess, 70% of PGA players never win a tournament.
No doubt century is hard. But a triple-double is wayyyyy more difficult. The probability of a triple-double in a game is significantly lower than seeing a century, which is fairly common these days. And you have to be good at 3 areas, unlike a century, where you're focused on batting. The impact a triple double player has on his team is only equivalent to an all-rounder of the Shakib/Stokes/Kallis caliber.

No idea about golf tbh. But I was just going by the fact that both requires a good hand-eye coordination, temperament and mental strength.
