Default Sergio Spitting in the Cup!! - March 25th, 2007

Sergio missed a par put and when he tapped in he spit in the cup! The camera's caught it - what a JERK. How about the next guy who has to take his ball out of there?
Jimmy Roberts asked him about it after the round and he tried to play it down but was clearly caught off guard.
Don't you think he should have apologized?

Gross! Above all else, golfers should remain gentlemen (even the ladies) on the course. Spitting in the cup is definitely unacceptable.

He is an A**,Friday he yelled at a spectator telling him how hard the shot was to play after he hit the shot into the water.
If they have a penalty for what he did (spitting in the cup) I'm sure he now knows what it is,(strokes or disqualification) if anything.

If Sergio indeed needlessly yelled at a fan and spit in a cup during a tournament, well then, that is a shame. Of course, I was, for years, under the impression that only nice people played golf, but I was disabused of that unrealistic and gross generalization by a particularily loud, unfriendly, obnoxious and unattractive fellow who plays regularly at my club. I thought at first this fellow was just an abberation; but no, I saw a vestigial cousin of his at a very swanky club a few weeks after I met the former fellow. I suppose the moral is that people being who they are, there will always be in a crowd a few really fine folks, some who are so-so, and then, a few louts. I guess it would seem that Sergio may fit into the latter group or, to be more generous, perhaps he was just having a bad day, in which case we may forgive him.

Here is a link to an article which addresses Garcia's classless spitting incident: http://www.thegolfchannel.com/core.a...2071&select2=2 It appears Tim Finchem is annoyed, to some degree, with Garcia's conduct.

Euro Trash, like the lot of them...that's quite a generalisation isn't it ?

He spat in the cup, didn't beat his wife/partner, or steal from anyone or arrive at the tournament drunk or give up when he had a bad round, or gamble away millions in earnings...what he did was wrong, but lets get a bit of perspective he spat in the cup and had a go at a spectator ( still mild compared to what Steve Williams gets up to most rounds )
