England’s Justin Rose qualified Tuesday for this month’s British Open at Troon as former Ryder Cup teammate Sergio Garcia again failed to book a place in golf’s oldest major championship for the second-straight year.
Garcia, however, remains a popular figures as was clear from the hundreds of spectators who followed him on Tuesday, although that created problems as there were lengthy delays on each hole because of the large crowd. Golf reporter Ben Parsons captured Garcia’s frustrations in a social media post and claimed the Spaniard’s frustrations centred around his group being placed on the clock despite marshals needing time to clear spectators before hitting their tee shots.
“When you have 2,000 people following us with no ropes, nothing. The marshals were trying to do the best job they could do but obviously we had to stop pretty much on every tee for two-to-three minutes to hit our tee shots because people were walking in front of the tee and on the fairway. Unless we wanted to start hitting people we couldn’t hit.“On a day like today when the conditions are so tricky and you might need a little of bit of extra time here and there it doesn’t help out.
