Golf's civil war has hit new levels this week with Ian Poulter bringing birthday wishes into the saga dividing the sport.
Poulter was one of the UK's most popular golfers and firmly cemented as a Ryder Cup icon before his controversial move to the Saudi-backed LIV series this year. And he's vociferously defended his big money move since, feuding with long-time teammate Rory McIlroy and now embroiled in legal action against the PGA Tour.
But his latest outburst has triggered memories of Yaya Toure's famous fallout with Manchester City, after neither the club or his agent Dimitri Seluk marked his 31st birthday. Poulter himself turned 47 on Tuesday, and was triggered by the Ryder Cup Europe Twitter account highlighting the "incredible touch" of Francesco Molinari.
