Allenby At It Again
Well let’s be honest, there hasn’t been a golfer over the past few months that has been as outspoken as Robert Allenby. And well, he’s talking yet again, and it’s sort of turned some heads. This time? He believes that American players have it too easy.
Seriously, is he going to continue to do this? First he rips into Anthony Kim, and then gets it handed to him by Kim out on the course. Now he’s talking about American golfers having it easy?
Does he not realize who these guys play against? They’re competing against the greatest golfer of all-time, Tiger Woods. Yet they have it easy? I don’t think so. I know, I know. He’s talking about more of a money thing than competition. And while I know the players want a shot at some big money, they also want a shot at glory. And they’ll get that glory if they knock off Tiger.
But I guess Allenby will continue to give his thoughts, and there’s nothing wrong with that. While I may not agree with them, he does have the right to his opinion. I guess we’ll have to wait and see what Allenby says next.
Nothing new here about American Golfers. Sounds a bit like Gary Player. Travel is the biggest challenge for foreign players. My French friend; Thomas Levet really could do a lot more in the USA, as could other “not so famous stars of the game” from Japan, Europe and China.
