We will miss Ivor Robson now he has retired. He has been a constant most of our golfing lives.

Compare his professionalism with the announcer at a PGA Tour event in the Southern states. It was around the time after the Brookline Ryder Cup when there was some rankle with the European players and he was deliberately mispronouncing some of their names. Poor Bernhard Langer came off the worst.

“On the tee from Ger-manee” he drawled. “Long hard Long-er”.

Only a porn star would choose such a name!
