Ian Poulter complained last month about partisan fans verbally abusing him at the US Open. Over the weekend, a marshal at the Scottish Open took the tour star to task for the same thing.
Carnoustie’s 499-yard finishing par 4, AKA “Home,” played as the toughest hole on the golf course in the 2007 Open with a whopping 4.61 scoring average. We’re guessing it will play just a bit easier if conditions stay like this.
On the 471-yard 10th hole at Gullane Golf Club, Mickelson smoked an iron that barely got off the ground before running – and running some more – down the course’s baked fairway.
Although the note of clarification and remorse should go a long way with some, we’re guessing this isn’t the last time he’s asked to speak on the subject.
In mentioning that he had just dropped an F-bomb somewhere else, Stenson dropped another F-bomb before being told he was on live TV. And his reaction was priceless:
It sounds like Tiger is staying true to his “It’s winning time” comment from earlier this year and not being quite as chummy with his competition now that he’s healthy again.
Did you wait until the last minute to find a place to stay while attending this week’s US Open at Shinnecock Hills? Well, you’re in luck, because there’s a stunning rental house in the Hamptons that’s still available. And it’ll only cost you $US500,000.
