    This has not went down too well.

    [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s1icwpuRr20"]Garcia Makes Fried Chicken Joke About Tiger - YouTube[/ame]


    The verbal sparring between Sergio Garcia and Tiger Woods continued Wednesday after Woods tweeted back at Garcia in response to comments made by Garcia that could be perceived as a racial reference aimed at the world's No. 1 player.

    On Wednesday morning, Tiger tweeted this: "The comment that was made wasn't silly. It was wrong, hurtful and clearly inappropriate.

    "I'm confident that there is real regret that the remark was made.

    "The Players ended nearly two weeks ago and it's long past time to move on and talk about golf."
    Garcia, who later issued an apology, took issue with Woods for what he viewed as a breach of golf course etiquette during the third round of The Players Championship two weeks ago, was asked in jest at a European Tour function if he would be inviting Woods to dinner during next month's U.S. Open.

    "We'll have him 'round every night,'' Garcia said, according to multiple media reports. "We will serve fried chicken.''

    Awkward. :smiley-laughing002:

    As per most within golf including Woods will want to move on quickly, but the usual suspects will be baying for blood.

    I think its because fried chicken was the food of the African Americans years ago. Or that is what was associated with them. And by African Americans, I mean slaves. Thats what they were fed.

    Another example of the race card being used when it shouldn't

    I doubt many people (Like me and Garcia) from Europe know that. If you were to ask me fried chicken would be one the first US foods I would think of so I doubt there was anything racist in it.

    Just Google fried chicken and on image search there are four other options and two of them are "Fried Chicken Black guy" and " fried chicken black people". Garcia Knew what he was saying. Hopefully he loses his sponsors.

    Tiger Woods would disagree with that, just as every single golfer that has commented on this episode would.

    Indeed.

    He should be stripped of all his wealth.

    No secret they don't like each other. Sergio knew what he was saying alright. That's why he immediately tried to apologise. Not clever.

    honestly i thought this was going to be about a guy giving a fried chicken to a tiger and being done for animal cruelty or forced canabalism and didnt think it made any sense
