Ian Poulter's Mini-Meltdown At The U.S. Open

Ian Poulter gets a less than spectacular bounce on his approach to the 99 yard, par 3, 7th hole at Pebble Beach during the 3rd round of the 2010 U.S. Open. He then goes on a mini-rant without knowing a camera is on him.

" well...on the wii version of tiger woods pga tour 10, the answer is a 50 % shot with a sand wedge...:) "

perhaps the most amusing guy on tour. I volunteered for the us open last year at bethpage and rode in the van with him out to the 10th tee. he was cracking up everyone up.

If it had been in a Ryder Cup, he would have it to a foot and then spent the rest of the day "tweeting" to his mates.

@supersasukemaniac dude any course in the world is tough if you don't know what you're doing.

[supersasukemaniac]

@cfcgolfer i think the course at Saint Andrews is actually very challenging if you don't know what your doing

[therealtitts]

that shot was impossible that day I remember just about every players ball bounced off the green, it was rock solid impossible for a ball to stop on it

@Beergut111 European courses aren't shit you're saying St Andrews is shit the home of golf. Dick.

[beergut111]

hey poulter, take a club less and hit it harder you noob

[cockywatchman1976]

@MrAJR76 Yeah, Im sort of undecided. I like his grit-not a great ball striker, but he gets the best out of his game. He does seem to lose his rag a lot though-he was moaning about Wentworth at thge PGA-after he had messed up the hole. And a few other tantrums i recall. He's supposed to be a decent fella off the course though, guess everyone is entitled to throw a wobbler or 6

[MrAJR76]

@cockywatchman1976  Granted, he's not that great a player. But he is a funny & popular guy on tour, and as regards the French Open cameraman he was absolutely right to lose his rag.

[cockywatchman1976]

Poulter always moans if it doesnt go his way (remember french open cameraman, remember PGA 18th hole etc etc). The reality is he is good, but not as good as he wants or thinks. Average ball striker on tour
