ST. ANDREWS, Scotland (CBS) – Tiger Woods will have to keep his language clean at the British Open.

The British newspaper The Mirror reports the Royal and Ancient Golf Club, which organizes the British Open, is planning on a crackdown on inappropriate language and behavior at this year’s tourney in July.

Royal and Ancient Club chief executive Peter Dawson told the Mirror, “These guys are role models and we are looking for them to behave as well as possible on the course.”

Woods got himself in hot water back in February, when he spat on the green during the final round of the Dubai Desert Classic. He was fined by the European tour for the offense.

The British Open is set for July 14-17 at the Royal St. Georges Golf Club in Sandwich, Kent, England.

      Ummmm yeah, pretty sure that the Hawks are gonna be out of it pretty soon. Which is gonna leave you with much MUCH less hockey talk. Get used to it, quit crying.

    So classy

  • Fan

    No one would hear the words if the news media weren`t up his backside all the
    time,I blame the media and so should the Royal and Ancient Golf Club!!!

      I’ve always found it funny that no one mentions anyone else’s language on the course, even though if you read their lips, you can SEE that other guys do the same thing. But, like you said, Tiger has a mic up his ass ALL THE TIME. And when you have a mic up your ass, people are bound to hear a few farts.

    When in Rome, one must do as the romans.
    Run with snobs, you must behave like them.
    .
    It’s their club, you have to play by their rules.

  • richr

    How about fining him for those ridiculous fist pumps!

    • Ron B

      F- the brittsh open. Tiger should pull out and leave all of the english snobs to themselves. Without Tiger what will they have to talk about? That old course is nothing but a cow pasture and is awful to watch on TV.

  • Roger

    Perhaps Tiger’s best approach would be to be as “classy/snobby” as possible, win the Open and give the cameras the finger after accepting the trophy.

  • HAROLD

    YOU PEOPLE ARE ASSINE, NO ONE MENTIONED TIGER , BUT LEAVE TO YOU PUNDITS AND/OR A**HOLES TO TRY AND MAKE UP A STORY WHERE THERE ISN’T ONE. BY THE WAY, WHAT ABOUT SERGIO SPIITING DIRECTLY INTO THE CUP??? WHWRE WERE YOU THEN? YOUR [PROBLEM IS YOU KNOW THAT TIGER’S RECORD WILL NEVER BE REACHED BY ANY OF THIS NEW CROP OF GOLFERS.
