Sergio Garcia Says Masters Is Unfair, Too Tricky; Angel Cabrera Likely Disagrees

And this is why Sergio Garcia will never live up to the hype that surrounded him when he turned pro a decade ago: he blamed his poor play Sunday on the most prestigious golf course in America, instead of, you know, himself.

The video comes via The Legend of Cecilio Guante, which went with the headline “Sergio Garcia is a whiny bitch.” That’s one way of looking at it. Or perhaps he was just ... actually, no. "Sergio Garcia is a whiny bitch" is the only way of looking at it.

(While we’re here, I’d like to let you know that if you don’t like any of my posts on TSB this week, it’s because of this new keyboard. The buttons tend to stick and my wrists aren't properly calibrated to the angle of the keys yet. It’s just ... it’s too tricky.)

The best way to adjust yourself to a new keyboard is to do a bunch of cocaine and spend like 12 hours playing Madden. By the time the drugs have worn off, your typing speed on the new keyboard has increased. It’s sort of like when baseball players use the donut on the bat while in the on-deck circle, but just the opposite.

If you don’t like it, Serge, don’t play.  We’ll all be fine, and I know I’ll enjoy golf a little better knowing someone may take your place that appreciates playing in the Masters.  Now go drink some more of that chick beer you schill.

Will never be a winner when he takes every disappointment and turns it into a bitch session. He has for years come across as a whiny brat whenever things don’t go his way. Why he ever took up golf is beyond belief.

Well Serge, I do hope the the "Master’s Committee" will put a green crying towel in your locker for next year, that’s if you can DO COME BACK! Maybe do us all a have, DON’T!!

This is very telling of this guy’s mental makeup, and most likely this outlook is going to be what holds him back in the major tournaments. How in the world can you complain when 1) everybody plays the same golf course 2) everybody gets equal opportunity to practice the course and 3) guys like Kenny Perry who are a 1-1/2 from the Senior Tour are out there beating the course and stand at double figures below par. Just weak. Augusta can be had if you know where to gamble and have the game.

I think my job is too hard too….but I won’t get paid $45,000 for 4 days work, and being the 45th best employee during that span.

My heart goes out to Sergio’s plight…..

The course was not too hard for all the players that kicked his ass. Again. Maybe he’s just not that good. He’s like Michelle Wie’s parents combined with Leon from the Budweiser commercials.

Nobody cares Sergio, you cry sour grapes at every major.

I realize the media puts you under tremendous pressure to provide results or asks the age old retarded question – why did you suck this week – but show some class or make up a nagging shoulder injury.

Don’t blame the course, because if a fat Argentinian who smokes and looks 15 years older than his birth certificate states can use a pine tree to get back into the fairway in a playoff hole – anyone can play this tricky course.
