Jiminez is a cool dude!

[Kilted Arab]

As the final round got underway on Sunday, fewer and fewer golfers were left on the practice range...

Jiminez was at one end, Sergio at the other with a couple of guys in the middle.

Jiminez was chatting with his caddy as he smoked his big ole cigar. Then he looked over at Sergio...kicked a ball forward...and chipped it towards the youngster as he was lining up a practice drive...the ball landed about 5 feet in front of him and rolled towards his bucket, startling him out of his preparations.

Sergio raised his arms in that Spanish way, looked around, saw Jiminez laughing and gave a shrug and a shake of his head and carried on.

Was a great moment to see.

That's it?

I thought you were going to tell us he invited you out for drinks after the match or something.

Ya, me too.

"Jimi and I went to a strip club. Things got a little 'blue' from then til the end of the night....or should I say the next morning around 8am....me head is killing me and this tattoo is never gonna go over with the wife!"

And he is just a really cool dude!! He would be just fun to hang out with. I wouldn't even care about the language difference!

Would be great to kick back with a drink and a cigar and let him tell some stories!

Looks like he needs to wash his hair a little more often...

On keeping up with the young guns on the golf course:

"When I play with these young boys and I see how they hit the ball, I know that my strength is not their strength. My muscles do not work the same. I cannot match their distance. I don't recover as quickly as they do. And the path they have to walk is much longer than the path I have left to walk. But I still have a path to walk. Always. So when you tell me I'm dead, well, you are completely wrong."

On Darren Clarke being named the next European Ryder Cup captain:

"I'm not disappointed, I'm happy for him. But I hope my turn is next because I am not getting younger."

On whether or not his English played a role in him being captain:

"You understand me, right? O.K. then. The Ryder Cup is decided by the players' clubs, not the captain's English."

On putting a bad round at the Masters in perspective:

"I am here with the sun shining, I'm surrounded by friends and family, tonight I will eat good food, drink good wine, smoke a good cigar and make love to my beautiful wife. It's a good life, no?"

And finally, on the haters, not that he has many:

"I come from a different generation. And I'm not a hypocrite. I don't hide the way I am. If I want to have a drink, I have a drink. Why shouldn't I? Is it illegal to drink alcohol? Is tobacco illegal? So why should I care if people see me smoking? I do what I do out in the open. If people have a problem with that they can stick their tongue up their ass and let the rest of us do what we want to do."

What happened between Keegan?? Did they seriously almost come to blows? Anyone...?

 

[MattyB]

Yeah seems like it. KB got pissed off when AMJ was questioning his lie and told KBs caddie to shut up. KB got right up in his face and was wanting to knock him out lol.

 

[Splunge]

In KBs defense, he was just defending his caddy, MAJ had no right to interject, then tell the caddy to shut up. I'm also a KB fan, so I would've loved to see him drop the old man, mostly for the beautiful gif's that would've spawned from that.

Do players normally comment on another player getting a ruling?

No, this is why Jiminez was in the wrong here.
