Westwood not taking well to criticism

Ahhh the haters have all gone quiet now ! Obviously didn't like a bit back at em! Pussy's!

He's gone doolally on Twitter this morning.

Fuçking funny isn't it

[Shaggy]

In one way I think good on him, but overall I don't think he should bite tbh - he's better than that. He does have a point about it being easy for keyboard warriors to abuse someone as wildly successful as he is, but he doesn't need to go down the Michael Owen route and belittle the 'normal people' for their comparative lack of achievements and wealth (not that he knows, he's just assuming).

Lee Westwood @WestwoodLee

Just catching up on that. Assume he's wasted as it'll be the middle of the night over there. He's making a fool of himself.

Lee Westwood @WestwoodLee
Sincere apologies to my sponsors and true followers for my earlier comments . It was out of order and out of character ,Westy .

I'm guessing he felt rough as hell when he woke up, the money comment was certainly uncalled for but can understand why you'd react after dickheads on twitter give you ****

Lee Westwood Twitter: English golfer says sorry for rant

The world number 14, who finished 13 shots behind US PGA winner Jason Dufner on Sunday, sent messages criticising users who had tweeted him abuse.

He also dismissed comments by pundit Colin Montgomerie who had been critical of his final round of six-over 76.

The 40-year-old later tweeted: "Sincere apologies to my sponsors and true followers for my earlier comments. It was out of order and out of character."

The English golfer was angry with criticism he was receiving on the social media website about the fact he had yet to win a major, having had five top-three finishes.

He told users over a three-hour period, "Will you get a life first", "You minions need to live from the inside out rather than the outside in" and "Come on you girly boy trolls! I've only won just over 2 mill [million] on course this year! Need you to keep me entertained a bit longer than this!".

When asked, "Has someone hacked your account Lee? Drink doesn't solve anything!", he replied "Oh it does! Plenty!"

And, in response to someone asking about former Ryder Cup captain Montgomerie's criticism of his performance, Westwood responded with "who?".

The Worksop-born player has since deleted some of the more expletive-ridden tweets, but not all the critical ones.
