Don Rea Jr writes letter to organization’s membersEuropean players and wives were verbally abusedThe president of the PGA of America, who had initially dismissed abuse directed at Europe’s players during this year’s Ryder Cup as no worse than at “a youth soccer game”, has issued an apology.“Let me begin with what we must own. While the competition was spirited – especially with the US team’s rally on Sunday afternoon – some fan behavior clearly crossed the line,” Don Rea Jr wrote in an email to PGA of America members. “It was disrespectful, inappropriate, and not representative of who we are as the PGA of America or as PGA of America golf professionals. We condemn that behavior unequivocally.” Continue reading...

7 d. ago Tom Watson says he was ‘ashamed’ of US fans’ conduct at Ryder Cup

Apologises for ‘rude and mean-spirited behaviour’Crowd aimed abuse towards visiting players and familiesTom Watson, a legend of American golf, has apologised to Europe’s Ryder Cup contingent for the behaviour of spectators at Bethpage Black while admitting he was “ashamed” of what played out in the galleries.

8 d. ago Lowry steps out of McIlroy’s shadow to play leading man on biggest stage

Irish golfer represents everything that makes Europe so successful as a team and could well be a future captainIt is not easy being Shane Lowry. Such a close friendship with Rory McIlroy means not only is sporting comparison inevitable but questions towards Lowry are routinely framed with the Northern Irishman in mind. What does Rory think, what would Rory say. Lowry takes it all in good spirit – the vast majority of the time – when he would be entitled to roll his eyes. That also applies to the rogue depiction of the hard-drinking Irishman who has a natural talent for his sport that removes a need for hard work. There are few more dedicated or serious performers than Lowry. He cares almost too much.McIlroy’s outstanding achievements in golf do not extend to what Lowry produced on Sunday. A stirring comeback from the USA had left Europe in serious danger of letting the Ryder Cup slip through a dozen pairs of hands.
