Sergio Garcia's Agent Really Sorry His Client Talked To Golf Channel
/Oliver Brown reports on Sergio's heartfelt apology for saying not-so-nice-things about Augusta National. I'm thinking it's so much from the heart that his agent may have even read this to him over the phone before sending it out!
"Following my final round at the Masters, I made comments in an interview that I regret and want to apologise for," he said.
"Out of frustration, I blamed the golf course instead of putting the blame where it belongs, on myself.
“I didn’t get it done this week. Augusta National is one of the most iconic golf courses in the game and playing in the Masters each year is an honour. I apologise to the members of Augusta National and the fans who rightfully treasure this golf course.”
Sporting News has posted the video along with comments from Sergio's good pal Padraig Harrington refuting the point.
I can just see it now.
The Golf Channel producer trying to flag down Paddy for an interview as he's heading to the locker room and Paddy waving it off until the person says, "but we have Sergio on tape ripping Augusta National and in general acting like his wonderful self."
Paddy: "Oh, where would you like me? Is this a good backdrop for you? I'll wait while you do the white balance. What? You don't have to do that anymore? Well I'll wait anyway. Take as long as you want."
