Las an immediate consequence of a pocketed blow from 78 meters of the American Alison Lee, during the fourball last Saturday afternoon, released criticism on social networks.
When the eagle fell into the hole in the second hole of the match between the United States and Anna Nordqvist and Madelene Sagstrom, the first in the afternoon, the chains of the Americans Megan Khang and Lee took off their overalls and polo shirts in the middle of the road as the chaos took over the moment.
The reason is that before leaving, one of the caddies suggested that he give $500 to the players if any of them got out of the way during the game, to which Lee replied no, they had to take their shirts off.
The move, unusual in a sport with more than 150 years of competition, caused a stir among the networks. Pablo Larrazábal, a professional golfer, even wrote “Do caddies take off their shirts to celebrate a great shot from the fairway? The game I love is going in the wrong direction.” The United States leads 8-4 in the Solheim Cup, after four mornings.
