Professional golf took one to the eye as the weekend Ryder Cup tourney finished off dignified professional golf, the era of drunken abusive golf tourneys will take center stage and drop any pretense of being civilized. The Ryder Cup had its beginnings way back in the early days of professional gold and that was in the 1920's. Then the seventies happened and televised golf came into its own which was largely due to Arnold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. Not just the two of the very best players in the world but certainly the eye of professional golfs hurricane. Metaphor. So the Ryder Cup happens every two years, biennially, and this year was one for the books. History books maybe but books of ill mannered poor sportsmanship to be certain. The Ryder Cup got off to a crap start when amerika's boy king orange adolf pedofuhrer trumpf showed up on Friday afternoon of the foursomes round and the proverbial ugly shit hit the fan. With trumpf showing up you just had to know that things would get ugly and quickly. The U.S. team was getting their golf asses handed back to them by the Europeans led by Rory McIlroy and McIlroy led the Europeans quite deftly. The amerikan spectators could sense the impending doom and took to being drunk and disorderly. So drunk and disorderly that squads of New York State Police had to do security details for European golfers AND those golfers wives and people attending to the Europeans golfing needs. The Europeans didn't need any help with their golf. Rude fans were ejected from the tourney and one asshole tossed a beer can at Rory McIlroy's wife and she was hit. Yep ... class real professional class. Or maybe not so much. Now retired master professional golfer Tom Watson issued a very public statement apologizing to the Europeans and golf fans the world over for the crass behavior of the now infamous golf hooligans. The ugly bullshit will certainly be remembered when the next Ryder Cup is held and that will be in Europe in 2027. The Amerikans can expect a genuine and for real hooligan welcome as the Europeans are well versed in hooliganism. The Euros cut their hooligan teeth at soccer. The real football and not the bullshit America style footbowl. An old adage goes, payback can be a real bitch. No doubt.
