PGA Tour golfer's take on iconic golf hole torn to shreds: "Spoiled brat"

"I think it's a terrible hole off the back tee. 

"It doesn't need to be modernised, to bring excitement it needs to be a hole you are able to hit a golf shot into and not one where you just hit it onto the green and try to get up and down. It almost plays like a par-5. 

"They try to do things to this golf course that don't need to be done. 

"Today I rifled a drive off the tee and then a 4-iron and I was the furthest up the hole."

Unsurprisingly, MacIntyre's comments were met with a mixed response. 

Here's some reaction:

"Sort of contradicting himself. It sounds as if he just wants the back tee blown up, not the rest of the hole."

"Too much time in America."

"He does like to complain."

"Spoiled brat."

"Sometimes it's best to keep your powder dry."

"Augusta National favours left handers, the Road Hole does not."

"It's the greatest hole in golf. The whining Scottish brat hates it there because he lacks the talent to play a controlled drawing tee shot followed by a gentle fading mid-iron into the green."

"Bob is starting to become ever so slightly self-entitle and obnoxious."
