He swore in his post round interview, so disrespectful. This is a gentleman's game and he starts throwing around curse words? Disgusting.

Easy to play like that when the money and the title mean very little to him.

Phil obviously did not care that Bones lost a big chunk of money from his selfish and reckless act.

I estimate the delta to be 32K Euros vs. 9K Euros, a difference of 23K Euros.

I don't think a player owes it to their caddy to be thinking about what's best for their paycheck before making/not making a shot. That being said I'm sure that over the years that bones has come out significantly ahead from all the risk/reward decisions Phil has made.

If he had chosen an unplayable, what would the penalty be? Replay the shot with a one stroke penalty?

I agree.Bones makes a lot of dough. How could anyone think that a player is going to think about his caddie before making a play? Thats ridiculoius. Bones is probably on salary anyway.

I would think Bones is considered family at this point.
