2015 The Players Championship DiscussionThread

[Natural Patrick]

He also wore pink shoes on Sunday, which weren't shown in that shot. I did notice that kinda goofy hat he wore on Sat. Thought that might become the new standard but he was back to the flat-bill by Sun.

I think the shoes he wore Sunday, were more Purple than pink ?

[Rick Martin]

Other than the hat I think most people under 25 years old can pull off that look pretty easily.

not everyone can pull off the hat

I guess Ted Bishop really doesn't like Poulter, here's the latest tweet from Ted

Quote:

Rickie Fowler - the legend is made. Only one over rated player left.......

Poulter responded

Oh Ted Ted Ted..... I thought you learnt you lesson the last time. Obviously not.

[Rick Martin]

Timely.

I have a financial interest in a local golf store and was there today to pick up some clubs I had ordered.  While I was there (less than 1/2 hour) at least three people called in asking for Cobra golf bags and equipment.  Fowlers win yesterday is great for golf, Rickie and Cobra.

Those puma hats are dope as hell.

They were the same color as on his hat and shirt.  Maybe it looked more purple sitting next to the blue, but those shoes were pink.

Uh she is a fashion model.

Hey, I didn't say she was white trash.

That's the problem w/ twitter - a lot can be lost in those 140 characters......Ted Bishop's tweet may have been intended to be more facetious than trying to put down Poulter.

Ian Poulter needs to spend far less time on social media and should also refrain from dissing genuine English golfing heroes in his crappy, ghost-written autobiography (that would be Nick Faldo who, at the time of writing, has a 6 - 0 advantage over Ian Poulter in terms of majors won); in short, Ian Poulter, who, at the age of 39, having precisely the same number of PGA Tour wins (2) that Rickie Fowler has at age 26, should worry more about his golf game and less about sharing his opinions with the world at large. I'm not surprised that his peers regard him as over-rated.

The only thing I can't fathom about Poulter is why he is an Arsenal fan; I'd have thought that supporting Chelsea would suit him to a T.

[Aguirre]

Chelsea fan here.

[ScouseJohnny]

Alright: from a Liverpudlian to a Chelsea fan (in peace). Congrats on the title (sincerely). I'd always rather your lot than Man U!

He might have but he has to be a little bitter about how Poulter cost him all the perks of being a former PGA President.  I think he was being a bit facetious but also throwing a dig at Poulter.

I agree. I think most athletes need to be less vocal on social media -

What do you mean by "need?"

[FaldosEgo]

I've been playing Cobra's for years and carrying them in a Cobra bag. Welcome bandwagoners!

[Rick Martin]

to the victors go the spoils - $1.8 mil, more endorsements, and some security/exemptions which he probably didn't need

and this -

Why?  I don't disagree entirely but I'm curious what your reasons for it are.
