I was up at the golf with my old man and my big br6ther on Friday.
Sat in the stand right at the 11th tee for a fair bit of the day as you get to see plenty of golf.
After the delay there were alot of hold ups on course, with 2 games on the 11th tee almost constantly. After Tiger finished on 10, 2 young coloumbian kids came into the stand(I say columian as they had a flag), excited and jumping around smiling and waving their flag and a ball to the rest of their family I assume. As they hand the ball and flag to their mates or whoever, about a 30 year old guy yanks a shirt tail and implores them to sit down.
There was nothing going on, the game before Tiger was on the tee, Tigers game was waiting and the game coming up 10 was waiting on the 8th green finishing out. Nothing to see!!! This *** in my opinion is one of a number of reasons why we struggle to attract juniors to our game, these kids had obviously had an autograph and got a ball from Camillo Villegas and were ecstatic and this prick ruined their moment. Had I been sat closer, I would have hoped that I would have said something, I remember how excited I was getting autos from the players at my first Open, never mind from a hero as Camillo obviosly was for these lads!
Rant Over, and its off my chest!!
