When Taylor got the victory, his buddy (and fellow golfer and countryman) Adam Hadwin took a bottle of champagne, shook it, popped the cork and went running onto the green to party. But before he could get to Taylor, Hadwin was absolutely blasted into the putting surface by a security guard, and we’re talking NFL-style here. Or CFL since it’s Canada.

IMHO the security guard got carried away singling out Hadwin, given all the other people on the green at the time.

What I wanna know … how did this even happen?

Because, nowadays, Canada is a joke of a country, would be my guess. Their response, at a national level, to the COVID pandemic speaks to just how much those people have lost the thread.

It’s not the security guard’s job to decide who gets to rush onto the course waving a bottle. It’s his job to stop anyone who might be a threat, and he doesn’t get to take a whole lot of time to think it over. I think the guard deserves a bonus for quick action.

Well it did look he got the bottle of Champagne back, once they realized who he was.

On TV I watched Nick TAylor win yesterday. In an not usual circumstance, a brother of mine (he plays golf twice a weeK) called me shortly before Tommy Fleetwood tied Nick forcing a playoff. He was watching the match on his TV at home. We watched and talked with each other all through to the end. That rarely happens with us - though not quite as rarely as a Canadian winning the PGA Canadian Open (which last happened 69 years ago).

Yikes, could’ve ended that players career if broken bones or anything like that!
Hope he’s ok to play this week, US Open.

The “security state” extremist mentality is everywhere.
