Robert Damron (remember him?) having a go at Justin Thomas

[Vindog]

Thomas is very easy to pick on with his spoiled brat demeanor throwing clubs and whining after every mishit but Damron might be picking a fight on the wrong topic, plenty of other material to work with. How old is Damron and why isnt he playing anywhere, or is he?

 

I remember a certain well known Multiple Major Champion who is now sidelined with an injury throwing his club down and kicking at it like a spoiled little brat. On the hallowed grounds of ANGC at that!! It would have been enough to make Veruca Salt cringe

 

So I think everyone should just reeeeeel it in just a little bit here.

[VNutz]

No win situation for Thomas.

Thomas should win a pga tour event on the mainland before he starts the spoiled brat whiny phase of his career. To compare him to the attitude of a player who won 79 times including 14 majors is just a tiny bit off base.

lol...Hey Rob what happened? Injury, putting woes, ball striking issues, lost interest, sex scandal? 44 is young enough to still cash in somewhere

[RDD]

Dustin Johnson, Jordan Spieth, Adam Scott, Patrick Reed and Phil are not playing in the event this week

as well. Has Damron attacked them as well on Twitter?

Not an attack. But a gentle reminder

No it's not. In fact, I would suggest the player that has won 79 times to be held to a higher expectation of being able to hold it together out there.

 

Where and how many wins you have is of no relevance in this situation.

I like Damron, but that could change with this kind of crap. He needs to STFU and stay out of another man's pants. I note he calls him "Uncle Arnie", and we know he grew up at Bay Hill the son of a super wealthy coal family. Seems he is confused about real world vs. the Orlando playground for the rich.

 

Damron- "Go pound salt".

My Dad is upper middle class, far from super wealthy.

It is my friend

[ferrispgm]

I, for one, can't stand Damron...he is the epitome of out of touch, cheesy, middle aged, well-off guy who thinks his opinions carry weight. I don't respect his opinion one bit and I think he tries to make a name for himself on the Golf Channel by saying something like this or trying to be funny when he really isn't....it's cheesy comments one after another. It's your friends wedding...you can't pass that up....I'm sure if Arnie were still with us he would tell Justin the same thing and I'm sure Justin regrets not being able to play....stop thinking that just because JT is young it means he doesn't have respect for the King.

[walpy]

This is great

[egr2teup]

Robert, what did Mr. Palmers grand children call him?

I am a little cheesy!

Sam did anyway

Interesting.

 

What compelled you to join WRX all of the sudden?

I get you don't want to pass a friends wedding, and maybe I'm a little too close to the situation.

And of course I'm trying to make a name for myself on Golf Channel! How else would I keep my job?

I heard I was getting badmouthed over the JT tweet!

Poe, tell your little brother to bring it down a notch.

Nice! My last name doesn't have an 'E' though

As you should have. You were clearly in the wrong.

[Sun Devil]

I don't like what Damron did there.... Thomas is what, 23? Those kids he was with in college are important to him now and likely for life....

 

These ex players need to check themselves a bit....

 

Imagine what Bubba would say here. "Veterans can kiss my A**".

 

note: Veterans who played golf, not the REAL veterans that served their country.

You're probably right. It was meant more as a suggestion from one Ky golfer to another (Russ Cochran and Kenny Perry mentored me). I have a few regrets from my career and I was offering advice

[masamitsu]

I'm sure if Arnie was still here he'd tell JT to go celebrate with your friend, the tourney will be here next year.

 

Damron out of line.

opinions are opinions, i don't know why some of these guys are giving you such a hard time about you voicing yours.

I may be out of line, but AP understood his place in the game, and he was big on respect. He always took it personally when big name players skipped his event

[TollBros]

I've never heard of Robert Damron and it wouldn't upset me if it stayed that way. He has all the makings of another annoying as h3ll shock journalist.

 

Could be the PGA Tour gave Justin a one week time out for the kindergarten behavior on the course this Sunday, bit let him save face by making up his own reason for sitting out.

 

Doubtful.

 

Fine? yeah probably. Suspension? conspiracy theory

 

More me wishing that's what the Tour would do for antics like that, and honestly I like Damron on morning drive. At least he's got some personality that doesn't seem contrived.

[KYMAR]

Maybe if you expounded a little on the idea that without Arnold's influence, JT would be slinging hash at some roadside diner, people might better see your side of the story. 140 characters X 2 or 3 just isn't enough room to properly crush another guys reputation without using mere suggestion and innuendo.
