| Some heated tension at the U.S. Open between Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia. The feud continues in the spotlight after Garcia made an offensive comment about Woods. |
There's a major feud going on the green of your country club. Two popular golfers are making a whole lot of noise this week. The trading barbs cross the line into the negative stereotypes of Black America.
Sergio García, a famed Spanish golfer is not a fan of Tiger Woods, the world most known golfer and adulter.
At the 2013 Players Championship, García, while tied for the lead, hit three balls into the water on the 17th and 18th holes, finishing quadruple-bogey, double-bogey. He finished tied for 8th place.
After the Players Championship, Garcia and Tiger Woods (who won the tournament) had a public feud over an incident during the third round. Two weeks later, at a European Tour players dinner, Garcia makes the comment.
Garcia was asked about meeting with Woods at the U.S. Open, to which he responded, "We'll have him 'round every night. We will serve fried chicken."
The remark was seen as racially insensitive. Garcia issued a statement later that night apologizing and then issued another apology the next day, saying that his comments were "totally stupid and out of place."
For one thing, it's always funny these people like to throw the bucket of chicken at the Black man.
Woods rebounded from a public scandal in which he was caught literally with his pants down. He admitted that he had numerous affairs with women and was diagnosed as a sex addict. His wife Elin Nordegren divorced him. Nordegren is the mother of his two children.
Woods is dating Lindsey Vonn, the professional skier.
ABC News and Stephen A. Smith of ESPN News delivers a blistering commentary about the comment.
