I like all the Fox golf and Golf Channel guys (even Chamblee) but they're acting like Phil murdered someone on the course today. Even Steve Sands is OUTRAGED. And of course that has-been Steve Elkington went ballistic on Twitter, then had a mini meltdown replying to people poking fun at his career. Just not a fan of that dude and his edgy social media persona. It's like he realized no one cares about him anymore so he invented an alter ego for attention.
It was Phil's birthday, he was out of contention and he didn't give a shit. Although he probably should've chalked it up to pure frustration and a "John Daly moment" rather than referencing some obscure rule he was trying to take advantage of.
Agree, the media making too much of this. How many times do we hear players dropping f-bombs and GD near live microphones and no one says squat. To me that’s just as bad and sets a bad look yet they’re not penalized for their conduct.
