Woody Pukes His Guts Out in New Orleans

Posted by Golf.com | Categories: PGA Tour

Austin_200x200_2 Our favorite train wreck, Woody Austin, provided another Kodak moment this weekend at the Zurich Classic in New Orleans. Needing a birdie on the par-5 18th to tie Andres Romero, Austin topped his second shot, then hit his third shot way right into the water. He finished with a double bogey.

Afterwards Austin gave some of the most honest and candid comments you'll ever hear from a golfer. Here are some of the highlights:

"Oh, I puked my guts out, no doubt about it. I didn't have control of my golf swing and I put two hands on the steering wheel and was trying to steer it around, and it caught me at the end."

"The only reason why I topped it or whatever is because I didn't go down in and get it. Again, I flinched, like I said, and it really -- it really wasn't that hard a shot as I made it out to be. But again, like I said, I'm not afraid to admit, when I choke, I choke, and I choked."

"Like I said, I'm an honest person. I'm looked at kind of strange, but you know, I know I was choking. I'm not going to lie to you. I'm not going to give you a political answer and say, well, I just didn't have my game today. I didn't have my game today because I was scared out of my gourd and I was puking my guts out. That's the reality of it."
