Grayson Murray refuses to apologise after hurling putter and snapping club at US Open | Golf | Sport

It’s not the first time Murray has been embroiled in controversy over his conduct on a golf course. The American hit headlines with compatriot Kevin Na recently, with the two almost coming to blows after Na called out Murray in Mexico after he had been slating the 38-year-old on Twitter for his slow play.

Murray took to Twitter last week to tag Na after finding out the pair were assigned neighbouring lockers at the US Open, and appeared to have great amusement in replying to those who doubted he would make the cut. Murray shot an opening round of 75 but followed it up with a 67 to make it to Saturday.

However, rounds of 76 and 80 saw Murray finish with just one player below him in the standings: amateur Stewart Hagestad.
