Ian Poulter rips Bethpage Black's greens

19 guys broke par yesterday Ian. Obviously they had it figured out.

Virtually everyone who broke par did so in the morning, when the greens still had some overnight moisture. Once the sun dried out the greens, the scores were dramatically different.

You play the course that you've signed up to play on, so if you don't like it don't play there! Unlike the other major professional sports (you know, the ones where you can't ride around on a cart or tee off then light up a cigarette afterwards) where the players (actual athletes) don't have the luxury of choosing the ice surface, turf or infield dirt to play on, here the "athletes" can skip whatever tournament and go on to the next one where the surface is more to their liking. These overpaid, whining prima donnas need to man up and get on with it.

I've heard Poulter spends about as much time on Twitter as he does on the golf course.

Guess the PGA can't host every tournament on a tricked up resort course so the cut line is under par on Friday night. Really kind of fun to watch the greatest players in the world struggle over short putts and sand shots.

Could it be that you simply sucked, Ian?

Yup and the quality of his game reflects all the hard work he puts in. 1 freakin PGA Tour win? Who the hell cares what this pooftah has to say?

Sadly, no one cares about the Fed Ex Cup. No one can understand the scoring, and it is played at the worst time of the year as Football Season approaches. The PGA Season should start in late January between Conference Championships and the Superbowl, and the Ryder Cup/Presidents Cup should be played the Weekend before Labor Day Weekend. The PGA Season is too long, and nobody is going to care who is the 2012 Fed Ex Champion 5 years from now. The sport markets itself with the Majors, so thats all the players and most fans really care about during the year along with events like The Players Championship, Pebble Beach, Arnold & Jacks Tournaments.

Valid points.

And what exactly is wrong with 3 putts ? Standard operating procedure while i am out wrecking a perfectly good walk ;-)

As long as everyone plays the same golf course (Which I assume they did) then shut up and go back home Ian. You are dismissed.......

I remember reading an interview with Ian about 4-5 years ago. He said something to the effect that when he got his game where he wanted it there would be him and Tiger and then everybody else . It looks like he got his wish, although perhaps not in the way he intended. If it wasn't for the goofy clothes and spiky hair, no one would know who this doofus is.

I don't know which is louder, his mouth, or his pants.

Hehehehehe.

I'm tired of hearing people complain about the courses they have to play. It is what it is. You aren't the only one who has to play it. They all do... suck it up and play. Sounds like sour grapes to me.

Tell the Guy to eat a frickin pork chop or something will ya ! If he used a long putter it would look like he was hugging his twin Brother on the green.

I heard about these cry baby golfers complaining about the course being toooo haaaaard. Last time I checked...low score wins. So if your +20, and have the lowest score, you win. So what's the problem EGO boy?
