Golf pro Siem: Fucked the ball five times

For golf pro Marcel Siem, the Tournament of the European Tour on the outskirts of Paris after a misunderstanding already ended after nine holes. Due to the wet conditions on the course in Saint-Quentin en Yvelines put the 39-year-old his ball on the fairways a total of five times better. He thought that was allowed. But the referees then pointed out that it would not be played with Better Being.

This rule is handled differently in adverse weather conditions from tournament to tournament. According to "Golf Post" Siems caddy had told him, in Saint-Quentin be played with Superior. The punishment followed halfway through the day.

"That was a little too much for me," wrote the 2012 tournament winner on Facebook about his faux pas, so he had "disqualified himself". Now he will "meticulously prepare for the qualifying school in November," Siem continued. There he wants to get hold of the full tour ticket for the Europe Tour 2020.

Meanwhile compatriot Martin Kaymer started properly in the tournament. The former world number one played a 68 on the par-71 course.
