''They are playing for second I'm afraid.''
What a stupid thing to say. He was there at Augusta last year ffs. If a peak Tiger had a 3 shot lead then fair play but Rory is not home and hosed yet.

the tiger bashing by monty is unreal
 |
|
By:
To be fair, he's often full of praise for Tiger.

All credit to the fella for nailing his bllx to the mast..

Your all total idiots, Monty is a fantastic addition to the Golf TV team and his quip about Tiger been tackled by Norman Hunter was a classic. He says what everyone is thinking which on TV land is that a no no for some reason?
|
|
By:
Golf commentators in this country are generally shocking
Maybe some exceptions but the US ones beat them in every respect |
|
By:
Couldn't agree less. Nantz class, but other than that Murray and Radar different class.
Not to mention John E Morgan   |
|
By:
Murray is terrible.
The man makes me cringe. Much prefer the yanks, Miller and Maltbie are a great listen. As for Monty, he is so bad, that he is entertaining. This week we have been told all about his ryder cup exploits at Kiawah, by the "great" man himself. Mentioning "my comeback" against Calc was my particular favourite "monty moment" this week. |
|
By:
The Yank comms are too busy trying to be funny, cracking jokes every 5 seconds.
|
|
By:
apparently monty was captain of europe when we won the last ryder cup....you wouldnt know because he hardly mentions it.
I do vaguely recall that we had a much better squad of players to pick from but monty made a game of it by picking hopeless harrington instead of one of the worlds best match players...Casey. yeah well done monty you big useless lump of lard...hope and expect Olazabal picks the strongest team we have and doesnt perform any old pals acts like monty/harrington. |
|
By:
???? So much hatred of Monty on here.
One of the best ever from these isles. Very strange behaviour, just as Rory is about to lift the Wanamaker. |
|
By:
good player but pompous scottish snob who is so far up his own back side its untrue. excellent knowledge of course management etc but as I said earlier...turned a relatively simple task into hard work by picking one of the worst match players we have instead of one of the best in the world....but still likes to make it sound like it was his captaincy that won the day ffs.
|
|
By:
Still can't quite grasp why you choose a great moment in wee Rory's career to harp on like the Mother In Law (God rest her soul), to start moaning about an ex player...
Your choice, I guess. |
|
By:
because its boring watching the golf...it was over 2 hours ago....would still say the same things about monty tomorrow morning...good player...good knowledge...awful ryder cup captain...dont like him....well done rory...tigeresque type win.
|
|
By:
Yeah.....
 |
|
By:
What a tit monty is..... i like his new line 'rory will be the hottest fav EVER going into the masters'
 |
|
By:
what a muppet to put it kindly
the us commentators have sir nick faldo, winner of 6 majors we get mrs doubtfire, winner of 0 majors and a total bore why or why do sky have to use their own commentary team for majors  |
|
By:
They were playing for second!! Rory won by 8 shots it was never close!! Monty was right!!
|
|
By:
yeah--i will concede that
|
|
By:
Drove me mad this weekend. Added nothing imo.
Doesnt he undersatnd that most people watching have even a modicum of knowledge about golf? |
|
By:
The think I think he doesn't grasp is - we know he was a good Ryder cup player. We know he captained Europe in 2010.
He does not have to mention this every time a European player plays his shot. His commentary style is almost patronising at times. He needs to understand that Major championships are equally, if not more important, than the Ryder cup. |
|
By:
hes quite good if he dropped ryder cup mentions
if he won a couple of majors the ryder cup wouldnt be mentioned the 4 majors are 100x better than ryder cup frolics |

Monty got it 100% correct for the USPGA , for anyone prepared to listen and analyse what he was saying . Those who oppose anything Monty says got whupped , up their noses , you have to take people as you find them , and variety is the spice of life .
Monty said early on Sunday morning that the course and conditions were set up for a player like Rory , and I guess Monty would know that . Unlike most of the correspondents on here who would not have a fraction of Monty's insight into what goes on out there in a Major . All may not like Monty , his background , his reflections , but he knows whats going on , he knows the game , he won a lot , captained a Ryder Cup winning side , plus had a tremendous record in it himself . Like him myself , but then I tend to listen and analyse what people are saying , and discount the irrelevant , bye ball etc . Could have produced a nice short priced stress free bet for anyone who did listen . That cant be bad , and he said it more than once . |
|
By:
You had plenty on after Monty said ?
|
|
By:
i used to think monty was alright but he is a total tool, his bias towards the euro players is just embarrassing , and he just loves to have a good dig at tiger , i also reckon he has a picture of rory in his wallet (NAP)
|
|
By:
His bashing of Tiger is a disgrace frankly.
Tiger has done more for Golf than Monty could ever dream of. It's about time he recognised that. |
|
By:
He's not everyone's cup of tea, but he got it spot on and deserves some credit for saying so - he calls it as he sees it which is no bad thing.
Tiger was back to his spitting antics and was a bit of a drama queen when he got a thistle in his leg - so he deserved the comments he got from the pundits. |
|
By:
at least monty is entertaining - the complete opposite of bruce critchley
|
|
By:
just comes off as bitter
and who cares about the ryder cup major week ffs |
|
By:
So Kelly, anyone who doesnt like Monty doesnt understand the game?
You sound almost as patronising as him! Regardless of what he has achieved, he is a pompous, self absorbed oaf. |
|
By:
Didn't he stop some embarrassing pictures being made public at about the time of the Ryder Cup?. Or am I thinking of someone else- all seems forgotten now?
|
|
By:
Cant catch me , if you cant accept honest comments re Monty guess there is not much point talking to you .
Just dont understand those who are so anti Monty , unless they have personal experience to back it up . His media appearances have always looked OK to me overall . |
|
By:
Tiger to me was "acting up " last night in that incident , particularly as I suspect he knew he was not going to win . Thought more of him . Monty just verbalised my thoughts .
|
|
By:
I don't have an issue with monty on the box, in fact I like to play Monty Bingo, but I can totally understand why he rubs people up the wrong way.
For all of Tiger's 'antics' on the course, Monty was an absolute horror on the fairways. |
|
By:
i think overall he's a good addition to the sky team, entertaining even if he sounds a bit pompous at times. but like so many others are finding he categorises everything in ryder cup times, banging on about "our players", not realising alot of us don't give a toss about the ryder cup
