Caddie Billy Foster looks back on one of the most memorable moments from his time on the bag alongside golfing great Seve Ballesteros, when a slice of fruitcake bizarrely threatened to steal the show during a big head-to-head with Nick Price

He must have gotten some stuck in his throat, back in '86 at the final round of the Masters, on the fifteenth hole, when he pulled that four iron into the pond; or maybe it was Jack, finishing with a thirty on the back side, to win.

It was in Seve's benefit to give Nick the putt. When you are given a putt (especially a tester) it implies that you may miss. That tiny bit of doubt carries over. In the old days of match play, golfers were always pulling this "gimmie" strategy to create doubt and get into their opponents heads.

wiremessiah Really ? I don’t see the honor in MMA at all. It’s a dime a dozen in that profession. Takes 10 times more skill to play golf at the professional level than it does to become an MMA fighter. You don’t see the world’s best golfers with possible CTE after their careers are over with do you? MMA is way dumber when it comes down to the 2 sports . MMA isn’t what it used to be anymore if you know your history that is.... you ever watch UFC 1 ?

He could see through Seve’s horseshit. He was only receptive to Seve’s friendly hug because there were people around. Otherwise, I’m sure he would’ve told him to fuck off and just shook his hand 😂😂😂😂

Seve was one of the greats, but honestly all of Europe are too high on their individual golfers. People just dont understand that someone say Tom Watson would be the greatest European golfer ever he was born anywhere in Europe. He is what the 4th or 5th best American all time? Forget Ryder Cup results.. I am talking about individual wins and majors.

Seve Ballesteros was one of the biggest frauds and cheaters in pro golf....and there are plenty of other stories similar to this one. If he had any spirit of the game at all, he would have given Nick Price the putt. The fact that Price made the putt doesn't diminish the unsportsmanlike conduct of Ballesteros. Not quite as bad as Sergio spitting in the holes...but close. These ppl are uncouth.

Spare me lionizing Seve . . . I was at Augusta during Seve's first competitive round. On the first hole, he pushed his drive 10 yards past the fairway bunker, but, 35 yards right of the bunker, deep in the trees. He stalked out to the fairway and then came back and looked at his ball right up against a tree. No real option other than returning to the tee and hitting his third shot. Did that happen? No. Seve proceeded to badger first a Marshall, later a Rules Official all with very broken language. What he was contending was the camera tower on the right side of #1 green was in his line of play and he was entitled to relief. What a joke. Both the Marshall and R O told him "No". He pretended he didn't understand and proceeded to take a free drop and went on to par the hole. Also, Tom Watson, playing partner, well-known self-righteous rules/etiquette enforcer (ask McCord or Player), FAILED to come over and weigh in on the dispute to 'protect the field'. I was there. Seve was a disgrace to the game.
