Slow play solution: Whack the offender with your putter
Actually, in this case, it was the offender, or a friend of the offender, doing the whack job.
South Korean golfer Youn Youn Hyeon, now based in the Philippines, yelled at a group of players ahead of him recently whom he considered slow, which included a Vice Governor.
The groups confronted each other when Hyeon hit a ball toward Filipino golfer Gary Santiago. He then began yelling at the Vice Governor, named Emmanuel Pinol, whom, after trying to calm him down failed, allegedly smacked him with his putter.
Youn reportedly filed charges against Pinol, but Pinol is actively working to get the South Korean deported.
“We have to teach him a lesson so others, including Filipinos, would not shout at golfers if they play slow,” Pinol is quoted as saying to the Inquirer.net
Not sure who I’m pulling for here.
