PGA Tour golfer details bizarre incident with major champ: "Never seen anything like this"

PGA Tour golfer Max Greyserman has revealed Lucas Glover also left a stroppy note in the scoring hut after his temper tantrum during the final round of the 3M Open.

Glover caused a stir last week at TPC Twin Cities when he decided to take off his shoes on the 10th green after holing a birdie putt alongside Greyserman.

It initially appeared as though Glover was making a point about AimPoint as the American, a former U.S. Open champion, has been outspoken about the controversial green-reading technique 

Glover has complained that it slows down the game and that some players trample over other competitors' lines.

But the 46-year-old veteran later explained that his outburst had nothing to do with AimPoint or pace of play and that he was simply a bit miffed that the groups behind him had complained about him leaving spike marks on the greens.

Glover said that he has never had any complaints during his career. 

Greyserman has now revealed what happened from his perspective on the NUCLR golf podcast.

"I paused for a second on the fringe and I’m kind of wondering why he's walking in a circle and not towards the hole," he said. 

"And then I'm like, all right, whatever.

"Then I'm about to walk towards my ball, but then he stops on the fringe right in front of where I was going to walk towards my ball.

"I just stopped for a second and then all of a sudden he's taking his shoes off and I'm just literally thinking, what is going on?

"Like, I had absolutely no idea what is happening. I've never seen anything like this. I have no context of why he's doing this.

"He takes his shoes off, leaves them on the fringe, goes and picks the ball out of the hole in just his socks.

"At that point I'm like, ‘'this is this is crazy'.

"Let me just go make my birdie because I got a job to do and my job is not to worry about Lucas Glover taking his shoes off on the green.

"We’re walking in the next hole and I remember looking at my caddie and I'm like, 'did you see him take off his shoes, was I seeing that correctly?'

"And he's like, 'yeah, I have no idea what just happened'.

"Then Lucas told us that the rules official came up to him and said that guys behind us were complaining about spike marks on the greens. Lucas was upset because they were singling him out."

Greyserman added: "Metal spikes are perfectly legal, whether you agree with that or not, it doesn't matter. 

"They're legal at the current time.

"The rules official has no jurisdiction to tell Lucas to, like, walk better or something, to walk more carefully.

"Like, that's not the rules official's job. It has never been the rules official's job.

"He (Glover) was kind of making a mockery of the situation, essentially, and that's kind of what Lucas does.

"He's awesome. He's a great guy, and he's just kind of making light of the situation."

According to Greyserman, Glover also decided to leave a note with PGA Tour officials in the scoring hut. 

"Then we get done with the round and we're in scoring. 

"Lucas takes a black Sharpie, grabs a white piece of paper, and writes in big letters.

"I don't remember the exact words, but something along the lines of, you know, 'if you have any issues or complaints about bimetal spikes, please give me a call and feel free to talk to me'.

"Then he signed it and wrote his phone number, and he told the scorers to leave the piece of paper on the desk for the rest of the day.

"And by the way, we were playing behind someone who was wearing metal spikes. I mean, we didn't complain about it."
