He didn’t like that I didn’t tag him in the post which I’m pretty sure I did. I think Chantel I had already tagged him, so if I answer, he gets my message, I think it works like this. But I’m not afraid of that, I’ll tag it and that’s it », he added.
Murray, who last year revealed that he was undergoing treatment for alcoholism, revealed that the disagreement took place with the practice field full of players and those responsible for the tournament. And he admitted that the incident could have turned into something even violent.
“I guarantee everyone could hear what he said, even the caddies. I went up to him, face to face, and I stood my ground, and I told him if it wasn’t for me getting suspended right then, I’d drop him on his ass right there because what he said was so immature and I know he wouldn’t have said it out. from the field,” he explained.
“It was completely childish to say something like that four months later and do it in a practice field, which he knows is a safe place for him and that I am not going to do anything to him there, I was just provoking. But hey, it’s golf, I’m going to move on. I told him that if he is going to play the Saudi League no one will miss him here.”
