Ian Poulter has hit out at suggestions that he is being booed by the Open crowd, and feels that they have been supportive of him instead.
The Englishman has been subject to criticism due to his allegiance to the LIV tour, which is Saudi-backed. Poulter was booed on Thursday at St Andrews when he teed off having been the first of the 24 players that have signed up for the LIV series.
After his round of 70, Poulter was asked if he felt he was receiving ‘a lot’ of support following the chorus of boos on the opening day – and he snapped back. The 46-year-old replied: “Are we still talking about it?”
