If Kim's behavior was questionable by any stretch, it would be one of his teammates' or coaches' peragotive to call him out -- not a person he just beat.

and it was. But never the less Allenby definitely did not need to chime in as well

You gathered all that information from the article? That's impressive.

Yeah, it's pretty easy too. All you have to do is read the article.

Btw he's 24. Just saying.

A quote from Kris
...is that college bball really isn't "lower tier". The better teams have their rosters filled with guys who could play in the NBA. hell, guys used to come straight from high school to the NBA. I really don't think there's much of a difference skill-wise between the two.

In fairness to Allenby, I'd be pissed too if someone went out all night, got schwastey, probably banged some girl hotter than I ever will, then handed my ass to me on the course the next day.

He didn't pass out or puke on the course, how drunk could he really have been? Allenby is rapidly ascending the ranks of golf's biggest douche cases IMO.

Yeah I don't think AK's personal trainer Darby would ever let him drink enough alcohol to affect him the next day.

Allenby always has been and always will be a sore looser and a sook, every summer here in Aus he comes home and finds something to complain about, lets just say for an Aussie he doesnt have many fans down here... Oh and for what its worth i play better hungover too!! Go AK

On PTI I'm pretty sure they said that Allenby called AK up and apologized.

Allenby is a sore loser. He is in a deep funk, and should be. Here at the Turning Stone Resort Championship, he missed the cut. Then he went to the President's Cup, and got killed in the singles 5 and 3. Not good.

simple sour grapes on Allenby's part. nothing more nothing less.

AK should be aware that if he's in the position in the future to be a captains pick his behavior may cause him to be passed over. The kid has skills but if he wants respect in a team event he should tow the line to some degree.

I agree with you. The Euros have set the example. Party guys like Woosie always knew when to hold back for the sake of the team. They have such a great record in the Ryder Cup since 1985 because of their esprit de corps. Americans not only cannot pronounce that phrase, some of them have trouble understanding it.

Man, this news is so old by now, but still when you watch some kind of coverage that shows AK in the picture they have to boil up the soup again, over and over - just let it die.

It's like 3 days old.

      Code of Conduct Not Entered as Local Rule - Still Valid?

      By cdh79 ·

      So I am aware that "the committee is allowed to set its own standards of player conduct in a code of conduct adopted as a local rule" (rule 1.2b) I also understand that there are some aspects that are allowed to be entered, and some that are not allowed.  My question specifically is: In which form does this code of conduct need to be available? Is it enough for someone to say "that's part of our code of conduct", or is it a requirement, that the code of conduct is in written form? Also, is there a need that the local rule points to the code of conduct in any way?   For better understanding: I'm playing competition and the next course that we play has a "no smoking policy". I don't have a problem with it, as I don't smoke anyway, but one of my team-mates does, and someone told him "You'll get disqualified if you smoke on the course".   Now I have looked at their local rules and there is no reference to a "code of conduct". I'm not sure if they even have an official "code of conduct" that states that smoking is not allowed.   I fully agree that he SHOULD respect this request from the club, but I am wondering if the club would really be allowed to DQ this player for this, if it's not properly documented in their local rules/code of conduct?  This is an official national amateur tournament, so not just something organized by a club for its members.

      My Journey to Straighter Iron Shots

      By MiuraMan ·

      A few months back I purchased the following swing aid on Amazon ($130). It is solidly made of steel and heavy and stable in use. I use it both at the range and at home. Swing Plate Dual PRO by Jamie Brittain - Swing Analyzer Aid - Fits Standard 8mm Alignment Rod Sticks - Teaching Swing Plane Perfector - Indoor/Outdoor Golfing Practice. This winter I set a goal for myself to improve my backswing/downswing to be more consistent and on plane. I had a two way miss with my approach shots this past golf season. I have a hitting set-up in my garage, but I needed something to provide feedback while swinging the club. I came across the Swing Plate while browsing YouTube.   I set it up with the correct angles for my 8 iron. I started out with just the back rod in place, which prevents me from getting too far inside on the backswing. Started out slow and as I got comfortable increased my swing speed. Now I also came across a YouTube video on building a better backswing and getting more width in the backswing and added that to my practice. That video is here:    This video is a bit wordy since you are basically a fly on the wall as Ian gets a lesson. It took a few replays to be able to get the substance of the instruction. It was well worth the effort. Over the last two weeks I have been able to get out on the course and gauge how successful my practice has been. Overall, my consistency with approach shots has improved greatly. Incorporating the added width in my swing has also added a few yards to all my clubs.  What has your off-season training been like?
