Do You Agree with Patrick Reed attacks?

Golf for Beginners enjoys being objective about all news and wonders about the validity of some claims, so today we briefly review the infractions and conversations over Patrick Reed - is he really a villain? Did he break the rules in the 11th bunker at the Hero World Challenge?

Michael Bamberger, on Golf.com, stated yesterday that, until "Reed owns his rules blunder, he will remain hard to root for..."

Here is the video which alleges the rules violation that Patrick Reed has, indeed, "improved his lie":


Are YOU finding it difficult to root for Patrick Reed?

Well, I don't think he cares, as Patrick Reed says, "he doesn't listen," and that all the rantings, "didn't bother me at all. “I'm on the golf course. I'm focusing on what I need to do."

Reed Wins Masters and Golf Pack Giveaway Winner Announced!

Another Masters Tournament in the annals of history, with another exciting four rounds and finale!

Top stories included Tiger Woods's return to major tournament action, Sergio Garcia's 13 on the 15th hole during round one at Augusta National (I don't think I have ever witnessed an octuple bogey by a PGA Tour pro), young guns charging and older golfers struggling and falling back into the mix.

Standouts who led a charge included Jordan Spieth who came close to having a record round (his bogey on the 18th hole stopped him) and Rickie Fowler who stood out not only for his terrific approach shots but for his orange pants! At the end of four grueling rounds, however, the last man standing was local golfer, Patrick Reed.

All in all, The Masters did not disappoint the fans.

Onto the winners' announcement of The Masters MMO Golf Pack Giveaway. As with every year, this is both a Twitter and Facebook giveaway and, this year, Golf for Beginners has chosen...
