Sergio Garcia rules out peace talks with Tiger Woods
Sergio Garcia has said he is not planning any peace talks with Tiger Woods after their clash at the Players Championship earlier this month.
Woods upset Garcia during the third round at Sawgrass when the Spaniard claimed he had been put off his approach shot to the second hole by crowd noise caused by the American preparing for his own shot from the trees.
The World No1 insisted he had been told by a marshal that Garcia had already played his shot but Garcia, who bogeyed the hole, was incensed by his playing partner’s actions and said at the time that the pair “don’t like each other”.
Woods admitted on Monday that he had no plans to apologise for his actions.
Garcia said: “We have not spoken and I don’t really have any plans to [contact him]. Obviously he is not going to say sorry, which I can understand coming from him.
“It wasn’t my fault. I am not the one who should go to him. I don’t care who he is.
“It doesn’t matter if it is Tiger Woods or Luke Donald, who is my best friend on tour. If I have done something wrong I will go up and say, ‘Sorry, I hope it is okay and that we can move on.’
“But if I am not the one who did the thing then I am not going to go up and say, ‘Sorry for you doing that thing to me’. That’s nonsense.”
