Had to laugh at 72% of golfers not allowing Sergio Garcia to date their daughter.

Nice one. I wonder what's so bad about having Sabbatini as a playing partner?

I was just thinking the same thing?
I have heard he says what he thinks most of the time, he may of stood on a few toes over the years.

[Jarro]

He's certainly not on Tigers christmas card list ;)

I think he is very impatient, if I am remembering correctly. To the point where he will walk 150m and stand beside the green while his playing partner is still way back in the fairway.

Isn't he the guy that left that slow bloke behind that day ?

[goughy]

Yup. He putted out and left the green while the other player was still playing. I'm not sure if he teed off, but I bet he was close. Deal with it Rory.

Sabbatini was certainly the culprit that day, and they were saying at the time that he was notorious for ignoring his partners while on the course.

Personally I hate him for making a speculative place bet (at $16) look really good after round 1, then he shoots 79 to take my money away the next day.

Interesting that the 'victim', Ben Crane, was number 2 on that list.

Sergio gets a lot of negative mentions. Somebody doesn't like him.

I was curious, so I had a look back.

That wasn't the day's only drama, as Rory Sabbatini made public his frustration at fellow competitor Nick Faldo's slow play.
South African Sabbatini's wife followed her husband wearing a tee shirt with "Keep Up!" plastered across the front.

Faldo got the message, but perhaps the wrong one.
"It's embarrassing people bring their sexual problems to the golf course," he said.


Apparently Rory Sabbatini is a real A-hole to caddy for......

So does Sabbatani keep on the tail of the group in front or ask them to let him play through?

[Moe Norman]

slow play is a blight on the game, the pros play so slow its a joke.

Good on Rory for sticking to his guns.

Oh Oh -:shock: ummm thats not a bad thing, right?

In many cases it's a good thing, aside from the safety issue.

A few months back I got fed up with my playing partners tantrums (which led to his buggy actually breaking) and ended up about 275m ahead of him, hit to the green, played out the hole and had a chat to the course workers before he caught up so that I could tee off on the ninth hole. This was actually in a scroungers competition.

I don't normally do things like that as i am not a fast player myself, but I might consider it if I was playing with Ben Crane.

I thought the least surprising answer was that Michelle Wie was voted the most overated golfer.
