31 time European Tour winner Colin Montgomerie and 11 time winner Thomas Bjørn were having a good bit of fun right before teeing off for the third round of the Alstom Open de France 2011 on July 2nd. Even up to the last seconds before Bjørn is to tee off when Monty interrupts the building silence by offering the job as a caddie for his playing partner: "Anybody want to caddie for Thomas Bjørn...?"
Naturally the spectators loved that and several also promptly raised their hand to take it! :o) The sound is a bit love. That's all I could manage with my iPhone. And excuse my laughing straight into the microphone. I like to have fun though and the two of them were REALLY giving the spectators a good bit of entertainment for the full five minutes leading up to them teeing off! Pretty priceless! Hope they both have a great day! ;o)
And why do I stop my iPhone-recording before he hits? Well - because I have to! :o) And I really respect that at these golf tournament. I know how important it is for the players - and we all get better entertainment when they feel good and safe to do their job... ;o)
Caddies are Phil Morbey (Bjørn) and Dominic Bott (Monty).
hey, really nice to see this clip. my brother dominic was on montys bag here but he had just split with THOMAS after 3 years (and 2 wins together) not spoken to my bro about this yet. i bet he was quite embarrassed by montys comment :-)
