Colin Montgomerie was involved in another incident with a press photographer
as he slumped to an opening 82 in the United States PGA championship.
"I told you three times on this hole alone," Montgomerie was overheard to
say coming off the 13th green at Oak Hill in Rochester, New York.
In June the seven-time European number one brandished a club at photographers
during the British Masters at the Forest of Arden and afterwards called them
"amateurs".
On the same hole yesterday Montgomerie had apparently been called "Mrs
Doubtfire" by a spectator.
It was not the first time that had been aimed at him - the first reference to
the Robin Williams film character came when he was badly heckled at the 1997 US
Open in Washington.
There was also a report from a marshall that Montgomerie tossed a ball towards
the photographer, but the player's manager Guy Kinnings said later he had
checked with the Ryder Cup star about the incident and Montgomerie told him he
had merely lobbed the ball to his caddie Steve Rawlinson.
The 82 was his highest-ever in America and came a month after he pulled out of
the Open at Sandwich on the eighth hole following a fall at his hotel that
injured his wrist.
