Monty Misses Out


After missing out on next months Masters in Augusta, Colin Montgomerie has hit back at organisers of the event.

Reports suggest that three Asian players, all of whom are ranked lower than the Scot, have been chosen to play in the event for commercial reasons.

A post from the Hooked On Golf Blog shows little sympathy towards Monty, who is referred to as 'Mrs. Doubtfire'. The writer highlights the importance of the commercial side of the tournament, and that an Asian draw is needed for television audiences.

It will be only the second time in seventeen years that the 44-year-old has missed the Masters.
