Golf guise: Ralph Lauren drops JT’s sponsorship for being caught saying “faggot” to himself

[lucio]

JT missed a short putt at the Sentry Tournament of Champions last week and uttered the only appropriate word for that situation, called himself a faggot for missing the putt. Turns out Golf Channel had a mic nearby and he was overheard. He apologized and what not many times and yet the faggots at RL dropped him.
Seems like a turrible business decision iyam. He’a probably top 3 most popular guy in golf plus top 3 in the world

Only a true faggot would miss that put.

There will be plenty of other sponsors, and he makes plenty of cash without them. He shouldn’t lose much sleep.

10-12 years ago when I was in school faggot was pretty widely used by people. Nobody got offended. It was what it was. Now it’s a “homophobic slur”. We are so soft as a society.

If the libs are able to take over the PGA tour they will be able to take over anything.

I’ll send him an email and let him know he can always say faggot on this board

It would end the PGA tour if they were able to. For the most part the PGA has been able to side step all the social and political crap other sports have dove head first into but once the liberals get their hooks into something they absolutely hate.....a perceived white elitist anything. What they will fail on is that the game of golf, in these times, is enjoyed by all walks of life. Rich or poor. I see it every day at the course I am a director at.

Can't believe Thomas settled for them as a sponsor to begin with. Should look into Browning or S&W.

I have called myself a fucking faggot on the golf course so many times I can’t even count.

 

[LaffertyDaniel]

The trend... Imagine where we are in 5 - 10 yrs. You will be jailed for saying that which must never be said against protected classes

 

[FastChad]

Most of my clothes are under armor and camo, so I don't own any polo stuff. I can promise you, that ain't changing any time soon.

 

[MonsterDonkey]

No more RL shit. Fuck that faggot...

 

[BayouCityHorn]

Glad he didn't say "Missed it by a cunt hair"....

He will be back with Polo within two years. The letter seems more like PR than a disassociation.

 

[d-tiger45]

Only a fucking faggit would drops a guy for saying that . Fuck Ralph Lauren.

 

[PelagicDawg]

He will look dope in some Nike gear. Libs should be happy about that. Being decked out in slave camp socialist clothing.

I agree that it was more PR than anything else. However I would be very surprised if JT went back to polo, even if they offered. (which I don't think they will) Just a guess here, but I think Lauren may have a rather large following and % of the employee base that don't enjoy the opposite sex.

My guess is JT goes with FootJoy until he can hammer out a deal with another clothing company that will pay him more. Titleist and Footjoy are notorious for not paying their players as much as other companies. (Nike, Addidas, Under Armour, ect...)

 

[Quatch$]

If Under Armour was smart they’d go after him. The real faggot Speith fucking blows and is a whiny little bitch. Bring on JT and they get automatic cred

Gotta love virtue signals from a company who produces their goods in communist sweat shops and marks them up 400%.
