'I'm Just Really Pissed Off Right Now' - Robert MacIntyre Wanted To Smash All His Clubs After He Blew A 4-Stroke Lead, Lost To Scottie Yesterday
We know what Scottie did yesterday:
But for every Scottie run, there's the other side. The other side yesterday was Robert McIntyre who had that 4-stroke lead going into Sunday. Not like he played great, he shot +3 with just one birdie over 18 holes, but it's how he talks about the round. The man needs to punish his clubs. Love it, we've all been there and we're not playing for $3.6 million. Just an absurd number to type out for a winner of one tournament, but you get the point.
It's also why this is the most frustrating sport in the world. MacIntyre talks about it, he missed a shot 2 yards long, Scottie holes out on a ridiculous chip and wins by 2. You miss a putt by a half inch and it counts the same as topping a drive. It will piss you off no matter what level you're playing. Rarely do you walk off the course not somewhat pissed off, you do all the what-ifs on your shots and play back the shit ones you hit. Now add in the best golfer in the world tracking you down and everything grows.
I'd rather have an answer like this than the normal stuff we get from golfers. Admit you're pissed off, film yourself smashing some clubs on the way home, get the frustration out before Scottie rips your heart out at Bethpage, hopefully.
