"He’s started referring to next week’s extravaganza as — deep breath now — the ‘British Open,’ for heaven’s sake."
/Derek Lawrenson searches for deep hidden meaning in Ian Poulter's Tweeting and also notes this:
That 15ft putt at Birkdale was actually the last time Poulter was seen in action on British soil. Never mind those spelling mistakes. Here’s something worth feeling horrified about: the lad has spent so long in America he’s started referring to next week’s extravaganza as — deep breath now — the ‘British Open,’ for heaven’s sake.
Peter Dawson, chief executive of the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, would probably be well within his rights to take the Claret Jug back off him if he started any winner’s speech with those words.
