Tour pro waits 12 YEARS to get revenge for golfer's petty comment by using Roman numerals on scorecard
This payback was a longtime in the making.
There are some people who feel pro golf should get rid of the scorecard. After all, with every shot tracked instantly online, anyone paying attention to the tournament knows what someone shot long before they sign a piece of paper to make it official . But, from a content perspective, these things can still deliver from time to time.
Of course, there's a long history of mistakes being made. Costly mistakes, with none more famous than Roberto De Vicenzo costing himself a spot in a playoff at the 1968 Masters because he signed an incorrect scorecard. Imagine if Golf Twitter was around for that?!
RELATED: Tour caddie puts his house on the market for $14 MILLION But Golf Twitter was around for what happened over the weekend on the Korn Ferry Tour involving a scorecard and a much lighter situation. And the results were fantastic. Apparently, Adam Hadwin once criticized fellow Canadian Roger Sloan's handwriting on his scorecard 12 years ago.
Sloan's response was that he vowed to use Roman numerals to mark Hadwin's scores the next time they were paired together. Well, it took a looooooong time, but Sloan finally got to do just that at last week's Tulum Championship on the Korn Ferry Tour. The guy waited a DOZEN years to get his revenge.
