In golf terms that was an out and out bare knuckle brawl. Never seen the likes of it

I thought he did the right thing, he rudely told Bradley's caddy to shut up.

Mr.Prodston

Fiiight :pac:

Bradley and his caddie didn't come across at all well there. Very compelling stuff though!

Are you kidding me? Squaring up into his face is the right thing?? Delighted the little pr!ck and his caddie lost.

MythicalMadMan

In other news the coverage is brutal, they miss so many shots and when there are so few left you would wonder how, commentators often off in whats going on in the matches but not really there fault

Bradley was well pee'd off there, not nice to see tbh

Its worse than brutal, big hype in the mcilroy v horschel match and we've seen about 5 shots??

If someone told me to shut up (or my Caddy, not likely :-) ) I'd certainly take them to task. As commentary say, poor refereeing.

Was good to see Bradley tell his caddy not to interfere or it could have got nasty but it should have never got to that point, I've never seen that before in golf.

shut up you pleb! thats what he said i'm sure of it

Golf needs to change up the hazard situation bunkers just too easy for golfers, need to add a few pythons or something.

I hope the lads tomoro night in vegas dont make the same mistake and show us 2 lads out in the car park playing golf instead of the fight.

How anyone thinks what Bradley did here was appropriate is beyond me. Miguel was perfectly entitled to question the drop and he was trying to explain in a calm and rationale manner and then Keegan's caddie was butting in.

Granted, Miguel should have used a more diplomatic way of getting "Pepsi" to shut up but the way Keegan squared up into Miguel's face like that was very thuggish. Seen enough of his antics over the years to have a dislike for him and this just adds to it.

Brilliant Rory

Not in any case should a player or caddy be told to shut up. Bradley needed to stand in line with Jimenez because as soon as he had it said he realised his faux pas and readdressed the "referee".



Imagine being told to shut up on a golf course!

The European blinkers are not just being worn by the Sky broadcaster here.

Hahah.. having an opinion renders me with "European blinkers"? That's funny... nearly as funny as you thinking Bradley's antics were appropriate. :rolleyes:

Apparently the exchange between them continued into the locker room leading to security having to be called and press asked to leave.

Sergio suggests "Pepsi" isn't exactly a favourite with other players.

The way "Pepsi" acts here in the following clip and tries to block Miguel's view when trying to discuss the drop with an official mirrors Keegan's scummy behavior. Also Miguel said "please shut up"...

Pierce_1991

Some putt at 17 from Rory to keep alive but really Horschel should have seen it out on 18 or 19, bit of a get of jail free card there but fair play to McIlroy for plugging away at it and pulling it out of the bag.

The format wasn't that complicated but the excitement was dulled by the fact that Sky commentators were utterly clueless as to how one qualified from their group. When Lowry was defeated they hoped that his good friend McDowell would do him a favour next day not realising/understanding that Lowry was knocked out at that stage. Truly unforgiveable from a group of commentators who have nothing else to do all day - it is not complicated.

MythicalMadMan

Left hand side of draw 38 the highest seed left, Right hand side 27 the lowest left.

Furyk at 44 is it a tough ask for him to play 36 holes (possibly) in ome day, I mean to a very high standard required to reach the semis?

True about them slipping up big time but I don't think it changes the spectacle, the excitement has been dulled by the poor golf, a fairly unspectacular course and especially poor coverage to date imo...it's hard to get absorbed into matchplay when you're just watching putts mainly.

I think there are too many players.
I would limit it to 24 players, 8 groups of 3 with 2 to go through. That would ensure that every match counted in the group stage and we might get to follow matches rather than putts.

Delighted to hear about the Jimenez Bradley confrontation. Never nice to hear anyone say shut up to you but no need for Bradley to get up in jimenez's face. He has every right to question the drop and it even looks like Bradley is delibrately trying to block Jimenez view of it.
Nice to see the passion in the players though considering it was a nothing match.

When Miguel was trying to discuss the drop with Keegan, the caddie interrupted and said "Are you going to try and delay us some more Miguel" (reference to a previous ruling in the match) to which Miguel replied "please shut up". After Keegan squared up to Miguel, the caddie tried to stand in the way and block the view of the ball when Miguel was trying to discuss the drop with an official. Classless. Both caddie and Keegan really showed themselves up IMO.

After the match when Keegan and Miguel were shaking hands and seemed to be discussing the issue again (not in a heated way it seemed) the caddie again tried to intervene and Keegan waved him away.

Ultimate matchplay psyche out by Miguel
Bradley's caddy seems like a piece of work, whatever about defending your man, Keegan towered over Miguel and looked menacing - a guy in his twenties and a man in his 50s.
I believe someone in Golf Channel interviewed all three, trying to find the interview online.

I think we're all in agreement on one thing. keegan's caddy is a giant douche!

By god, Billy Horschel's chipping selections were AWFUL at the finish

Come to expect the pure drivel that comes from Brandel's mouth as he is a complete moron but was surprised to hear David's comments. Thankfully, other media outlets are a little bit more unbiased.
