Post by sicknote »

Poults having a good opening round

but the media obseessed tv is following the has been that they crave to cover, and is frankly **** these days, and i aint even gonna name the prick, but the TV coverage has always been piss poor and as if its only him playing, when we have some of the most talented golfers ever these days and competitive tournaments

hope he misses the cut and we can enjoy the golf

^^^^ Yep :thup:

I've worked on many an Open when 'he' was at his peak and it really was the TW Show. Everything else was secondary to making sure the world saw every shot, spit, scratch and fart from him, no matter how badly he played.

:D

Is two shots sufficient for Mickelson or should he be disqualified? I'm with those who say DQ.

My mate is a big golf enthusiast...I'll email him..but I seem to remember another big time golfer doing something similar maybe at Augusta ??

Found it...

John Daly did similar at the 1999 US Open - don't think he was disqualified..but then again he was probably completely bladdered on the course...!!!!!!!!!!!!

:lol:

Not DQing him has set a potentially dangerous precedence.

Greens lightning fast and they're all having a good moan but it is pleasantly refreshing to see over par numbers frequently.
