Nobody complained one bit about Tom Watson until a bunch of outclassed US golfers got beat in embarrassing fashion by Europe. If you can't see that the optics of this look terrible (regardless of whether Watson is a massive prick with no management skills at all), I don't know what to tell you.

If you'd like, I can easily provide you a link to one of the most popular golf forums online and a 500+ reply thread that discusses this. Take the temperature of the room yourself after Watson's antics came into the fore and tell me how unprofessional Phil really was.

There would be about as much point to that as looking at a CNN Internet poll on the outcome of the US general election.
