British pro golfer Eddie Pepperell took to Twitter after photos of Tiger and Phil surrounded by piles of cash went viral, and had this to say:

“Putrid attempt at attention will turn out to be futile for everyone”

Check out his tweets below:

Coming away from my Twitter ban just to take Georgie’s point further and conclude that this is indeed everything golf shouldn’t be doing right now. One man earning $9 Million isn’t attractive. This putrid attempt at attention will turn out to be futile for everyone. Pathetic. https://t.co/dTf3B4mimg — Eddie Pepperell (@PepperellEddie) November 22, 2018

People saying it’s for charity… Didn’t know that if it’s the case. Will leave original tweet up in case it’s not for charity. (My understanding were side bets charity) — Eddie Pepperell (@PepperellEddie) November 22, 2018

I think whoever wins between Tiger and Phil should put the $9 Million towards America’s National Debt so it comes down to $21,777,841,457,810. (at time of writing) — Eddie Pepperell (@PepperellEddie) November 22, 2018

Then he compared the golf match to a boxing match, and took some major shots at Tiger and Phil in the process.

Looks like this guy won’t be buying today’s PPV event.

This event may be looked at like a money grab, but isn’t that what sports are all about? People are making money, this just seems to be a little more overt.

Eddie Pepperell is entitled to his opinion, just like Tiger and Phil are entitled to play a match for $9 million dollars.
