Pro's Spitting.....!!!!!!

Having sat and watched some fantastic golf on Sky again this weekend I feel it is time to sort out the Pro's who continue to Spit, it is a discusting habit and needs to be stopped before our young watching golfers decide it is a "Cool" thing to do.....

My solution; 1 stroke penalty for each time they do it.......

It is a gentelmans sport so please lets not drag it down to the leval of other sports where spitting seems to be the norm......

There are enough officials on the course to sort this out, If they need to spit then do it into a tissue or hanky...Simple........

Hi,  why not sit them down show them a replay of the telecast and fine them 10,000 euros /15,000 dollars donation to a charity for each time they did it. ( My equiavlent for them of a pound in the charity box for using foul and abusive language).

not actually seen any pro's doing this yet but its a sad state of affairs if they are! totally agree with the fine.  i thinks its a disgrace that pro athletes, hatever their sport get away with spitting and worse still abuse to officials.  its a poor image to set to those coming through in the game (i could start on about morality and indecent liaisons - mention no names, but thats a differents topic altogether)
