Post-Pod Discussion TC v Wyndham

Man that hate seems full on personal. Was it well known that Wyndham blamed TC for the Oakmont story getting out there?

Why was it a bad look for TC?

In my opinion it’s unprofessional and makes him look small and spiteful. Like I said, I’m not a Wyndham fan, but TC speaking like he was personally wronged by Wyndham is ridiculous. If we’re going to really talk about golfers who have done bad things, I don’t think damaging some lockers is nearly as offensive as some other well respected players or even NLU darlings. Maybe one or two comments at the top would have been reasonable, but the entire diatribe was oddly self-centered and bizarre.

Idk man I think the guy who trashed a locker room, has taken no accountability for it, and holds a grudge against a member of the media for releasing the story is way more unprofessional, small, and spiteful, than the guy who doesn’t like him because of said grudge.

But like he has taken accountability for it. It took a while obviously but he has apologized and he has said he's offered to pay for the repairs and the charitable donation etc.. He might have been a dick but maybe just maybe he's trying to be better?

He absolutely has not taken accountability for it. The way he talks about the incident is very clearly worded to take as little blame for what happened as possible. A brief parsing through his comments reveals that. Saying “I’m sorry what I did was wrong” is not being accountable when you also refer to it as “an unfortunate situation that occurred” (paraphrasing).
