Nadal, Spanish National Soccer Team on Garcia: "We're Going to Kick His A**."
(MADRID) - Sergio Garcia's 51st place finish in this years' Open Championship would, under normal circumstances, be disappointing. But given the athletic performances of several of his countrymen in recent weeks, it may actually be dangerous.
Two weeks ago today, Rafael Nadal won the men's singles final at Wimbledon, defeating world number one Roger Federer in what is already being described as the greatest match ever played. One week prior, Spain's National Football (soccer) Team captured the Euro Cup (2008 UEFA European Football Championship), defeating Germany in the final.
Garcia was among the favorites coming in to this weeks Open at Royal Birkdale, having lost the Claret Jug last year in a playoff to Irishman Padraig Harrington. Harrington defended his title today.
Garcia's performance at this years' Open is not sitting well in Madrid, where fans were hoping to keep their nation's winning streak alive.
Nadal, speaking on behalf of himself and La Selección, as Spain's national team is commonly known, minced no words when describing what awaits Garcia back home.
"We're going to kick his ass" Nadal said via an interpreter, as he carefully balanced two beautiful women on each arm. "His performance is unacceptable."
"The Inquisition? That was nothing." Nadal concluded.
According to a spokesperson, Garcia was halfway through a case of Michelob Ultra, and as such was unavailable for comment.

"this ball will fit in that fairway"

And just think how the current crop of Aussie men is following in the Shark’s wake.
On the women’s side, Lindsey Wright and Katherine Hull have got plenty of game to pick up whenever Karrie Webb and Rachel Hetherington leave off….
