Dustin Johnson and his caddy spent a whole lot of cash in that sandy little spot at Whistling Straits during the PGA Championship 2010 final round. Besides missing a three way playoff with Bubba Watson and Martin Kymer, and one that would have had me betting on him as the next PGA Champion, his eventual tie for 5th after a two-stroke penalty cost him a cool quarter mil. At 10% his caddy dropped 25k. Sadly, he was the best player that day too.
I've got to assign blame for this boo boo primarily to Johnson's caddy, who as I understand it was not his regular looper. Even in the heat of the moment and with all that gallery tramping in the bunker he should have said something to his player to the effect, "local rules may stipulate that this sand is in fact a bunker so just to be on the safe side – don't ground your club."
There is plenty more blame to go around even on Dustin Johnson's part and while he handled it well and seemed to be philosophical about it, it has to hurt, big time.
Who do you think was to blame for this, if not his caddy?
I prefer to remember Dustin Johnson in better times, such as this candid and funny interview he did on Maginnes Uncut.

I am getting kinda tired of the grandstanding tactics that these high profile attorneys use when they have a weak case, blowing smoke to stir up the female population just to create a diversion with some catchy little slogan.
Just remember this little ditty ladies, if you are in need of slogan material: if he doesnt hit, you must submit -
Of course that's a bad joke but just look at this latest sleezy attempt to extort more money from Tiger Woods.
OMG! An ADULT film actress has been traumatized by yet another black weenie.

Buying ladies golf equipment
Women`s golf has always been popular, but is even more so right now, with great women pro players such as Paula Creamer and Natalie Gulbis leading the way.
Many women became interested in the sport of golf in the 1970s as Women`s Lib Movement was at its peak, in an effort to penetrate the all male golf clubs who refused to budge on their `no ladies` or restricted access for women policies. Nowadays, the same clubs have realised which side their bread is buttered, with women having plenty of disposable income available and ladies now have equal opportunities on the golf course. Hence there has been a huge growth in the market for specialist golf equipment for women. Read the rest of this entry »
