There was also a guy named Dr Robert Haas who billed himself as a sports nutritionist. He had some high profile clients like Martina Navratalova. Jack Nicklaus went on his program for a while and got off because he said that he was feeling weak and tired all the time.

I went for it big time when I was playing professional golf, but I gained a ton of weight. The problem was that Haas recommended whole grains as the major part of your diet. I was eating pasta all the time. And I felt like crap and my golf game didn't get any better.
