Sergio Garcia is sent home by European Tour officials and apologises to his fellow players...
Sergio Garcia has been disqualified from the Saudi International after committing 'serious misconduct' during round three at Royal Greens Golf & Country Club.
Garcia posted a round of 71 to finish 1-over after three rounds, but was then informed by European Tour officials that he was DQ'd under Rule 1.2a for damaging a number of greens on Saturday.
"I respect the decision of my disqualification," said Garcia. "In frustration, I damaged a couple of greens, for which I apologise for, and I have informed my fellow players it will never happen again.”

Dustin Johnson (65) and Haotong Li (62) share the lead going into the final round on 16-under, with the latter incredibly making four eagles in his round - three of which came on the par-4s.
The last time a player made four eagles in one round on the European Tour was back in 2007 from Mark Pilkington at the Singapore Masters.
England's Tom Lewis also recorded a round of 62 to move up to third, but five strokes adrift of the leaders on 11-under.
