    Web.Com Golfer Throws Head Cover at Caddie After 1 Stroke Penalty
    Anyone see this? Apparently the guy was in contention going to 18, hooked his 2nd shot into a hazard the the caddie picked the ball up in the hazard before it could be inspected.....


    When players lose their cool, it's certainly not a pleasant time for the caddie. What occurred Wednesday, though, was certainly a rarity. The Web.com Tour's Bahamas Great Abaco Classic was finishing up with Rhein Gibson in position for a potential win or at least a high finish.…

      I'm confused why this headline was written... talk about ignoring the story

      I would think the headline would be "Careless (idiot) caddy makes critical mistep"

              Rudy I don't think the caddy was in the wrong....if you believe the caddies description of the events, the golfer walked away and implied he could not hit the ball.....still not a good look to throw a head cover at a guy

                The caddie would still have to know the rule at the time and question it, not afterward, to not be wrong really.

                    gotta agree Rudy....they are there to enforce rule errors....typically they just look for shit to call just to make a name for themselves

                      IT is the same in every sport with refs. They all think people came to see them.

                        this happens at amateur events, qualifiers, us open sectionals, qschool etc etc

                        non tv events

                        usually the ones on tv I think try to be appeasing to the golfer

                            Why is that a penalty if they coneeded to a drop?

                            No inspection required if the OOB assumption is made by the player.

                            Am i wrong golf enthusiasts?

                              Fatty I guess because the player said FUK and walked away instead of actually saying the ball wasn't playable the official made the decision. Again still not a way to act, especially knowing the event was being televised

                                The guy deserves what he got. When you are in contention, you make sure to do everything you can to stay there. Guy acted like a complete baby.

                                    Jesus. Philly kissing Rudy’s ass so hard in this thread.

                                    My God philly...I realize you made up with him but you riding his jock so hard is really not a good look.

                                    Have some pride for fukks sakes.
