Sergio Garcia Mad at Tiger Woods over Golfing Incident

Sergio Garcia told reporters that he had no intention of making amends with iconic golfing champ Tiger Woods in a spat that erupted on the course at Sawgrass during the Players Championship earlier this month.

The Spanish player grew mad when Tiger Woods pulled a club out of his bag just as he was about to take an important shot, causing a “ripple of excitement” from the watching crowd.  Garcia claims that he lost concentration and his hopes to advance in the Players Championship were dashed in that infamous 17th hole.

A frustrated Garcia later told reporters that Tiger Woods lacked respect for other players and that he “isn’t the nicest guy on tour.”

The following day, Garcia continued on his rant when he told another media source: “I have not spoken and I don’t really have any plans to contact him. Obviously he is not going to say sorry, which I can understand coming from him. It wasn’t my fault. I am not the one who should go to him. I don’t care who he is. It doesn’t matter if it is Tiger Woods or Luke Donald, who is my best friend on tour. If I have done something wrong I will go up and say, “Sorry, I hope it is OK and that we can move on. But if I am not the one who did the thing then I am not going to go up and say, “Sorry for you doing that thing to me”. That’s nonsense.”

In the meantime, professional golfers are now eyeing the next big tournament on the circuit, the US Open to be held at Pennsylvania’s Merion Golf Club from June 10th – 16th. Tiger Woods is the massive favorite to win the title, which was captured by Webb Simpson last year and Rory McIlroy the year before.
