GRAEME MCDOWELL WAS RESPONDING to Edoardo Molinari, who tweeted about the glacial times on the European Tour.
McDowell called Molinari a nice kid, but said the Italian was flogging a pretty dead horse.

"There’s just no way to speed the game up really. You can try these small percentiles, but at the end of the day it's very hard to get around a 7,600-yard golf course with tucked pins with a three-ball in less than 4:45, 5 hours. You can't do it."
