“Scared me to death,” said PGA Championship marshal Chris Deiulio, recalling Wyndham Clark’s furious driver-hurling tantrum on Sunday at Quail Hollow. Clark’s day was a mess, and after blocking his drive into a bunker on 16, he launched his driver like a javelin, sending it crashing through a T-Mobile ad board – a fittingly ironic victim. Deiulio, flag in hand, dodged the flying club and later shared the aftermath on social media. Clark’s meltdown didn’t change his fortunes, as he bogeyed the hole and finished in a tie for 50th – and well, it seems the golfer has finally realised his mistake.
In his latest tweet, Clark owned up to his on-course meltdown, issuing a heartfelt apology for his Hole 16 tantrum where he sent his driver flying. Clark acknowledged that his behavior was a far cry from the professionalism expected of him, and he was visibly dismayed by his own lack of composure.
“I would like to sincerely apologize for my behavior yesterday on Hole 16. As professionals, we are expected to remain professional even when frustrated, and I unfortunately let my emotions get the best of me. My actions were uncalled for and completely inappropriate, making it clear that I have things I need to work on. I hold myself to a high standard, trying to always play for something bigger than myself, and yesterday I fell short of those standards. For that, I am truly sorry. I promise to better the way I handle my frustrations on the course going forward, and hope you all can forgive me in due time”, read his tweet.
