Sorry Sabbatini

Note to Rory Sabbatini: Shut up, already. The cocky South African who declared that Tiger Woods was “beatable” got his head handed to him at the Bridgestone Invitational this weekend. Let’s see, Tiger shot 65, Rory shot 74. Tiger wins by eight strokes and is the only player in the field not to record a double bogey during the week. Put Rory in the same category as Stephen Ames and Vijay Singh’s caddie. Lesson learned. I doubt Sabbatini learned his lesson but his comments – and the ultimate result – might be instructive to anyone else on the tour thinking about tugging on Superman’s cape.
