Early chip of the year candidate.

Using just a 7 iron......or hockey stick?

After reviewing the footage they probably heard what Sergio said to the official. Had he not said what he did, they may have been a bit more forgiving on a ruling. Instead they give him a 🖕🖕. I will not miss Sergio being on the tour.

Mattyv I will not miss Sergio being on the tour.

Sergio Garcia = John McEnroe.

Spuzz

Mattyv I will not miss Sergio being on the tour.

I won't either, however, the official was incompetent in his ruling.
He made an assumption, (from the next fairway btw) which is a rulie no-no.
It's not wise to ass/u/me.

Par4QC That reminded me of this shot from the tournament at the Belfry this week.

MartinD At least Bjorn's remained on the green

Even the tour said the official was wrong. Was just pointing pointing out that Sergio went into Sergio cry baby mode and had he handled it differently he might have had a different outcome.

I understand.
And I am pointing out that the outcome would have been the same, given the "no take backs as per the rules of golf"
(although with less drama of course)

Lets here from the experts.

No love for Sergio / El Niño / The young Spanish lad. 😂

Spuzz

Mattyv
?
The rules official made a mistake that was not reversible, and would have made the same mistake regardless if the player was an asshat or not. (and in this case the player is an asshat as history has proven)
The rules official did not deliberately rule incorrectly because of whom he was dealing with.
No amount of charm would have affected the outcome and Sergio knew this, so he had his say.
That is my point.

Mattyv

Spuzz

Dude. Not arguing your point. I agree with you. Just sharing a story from a golf writer that won't miss Sergio as well.

Spuzz

Mattyv
Roger.
The majority will not miss him, imo.
His Ryder Cup playing days are likely over too (not Captain material either) so good time for him to jump ship.

Spuzz. Really, who would you miss on the PGA tour? I mean, any one guy could disappear tomorrow and who would care? Maybe Rory? DJ? No one guy is really that important since Tiger fell off.

Eguller

Eamon Lynch nailed it.

Spuzz

garyt1957 who would you miss on the PGA tour?

garyt1957 Tiger

Nobody and especially not him.

garyt1957 Really, who would you miss on the PGA tour?

I actually can't think of anyone. Most of my favorite guys are on the senior tour.

garyt1957

Spuzz. Not you personally, or me for that matter, but the general golfing world certainly would

Agree, they're all pretty bland and replaceable. Back in the day, love him or hate him now, Greg Norman had some swag about him, Phil, Tiger obviously. Now? Nobody for me, but I don't watch anything but the majors anyway
