'Reed's reputation precedes him'

Patrick Reed and Rory McIlroy followed similar protocols when dealing with an embedded ball last week but the American is under more scrutiny because reputations matter, writes Iain Carter.

I REALLY DON'T TRUST REED AT ALL. Golf is a game requiring integrity, and the evidence is that he doesn't have any of that. He repeatedly gets caught doing things you're not meant to - and getting away with it. GOLF WOULD BE BETTER OFF WITHOUT HIM!!!

Reed has made his own reputation, from collage days through to his pro career. If you have seen the incident where he improved his lie in the bunker (not just once) then it is easy to conclude he is not above indiscretions.
Such a shame because as a golfer his skill levels are excellent, but his credibility is, at present, shot to pieces.
Maybe he should play with Mr Ex-President? Two peas etc

Do you mean Clinton? He is notoriously slippery. Perhaps Bush, whose lies cost a million lives? Obama, whose lies destroyed the health insurance of tens of millions? Removed

Reed did no wrong, end of.
PGA makes the rules not the players, so good luck Patrick and glad you support the European tour.

No idea. He can not putt , can't handle pressure, isn't any fun, has no charisma whatsoever and yet here we are reading his name, every day.

So many great champions recently to congratulate, but no, they are not Irish. Removed
