American Patrick Reed is heading to Australia as golf's public enemy number one, with Australian Cameron Smith calling out his excuses amid a cheating scandal.
Not wearing his excuses, Cameron Smith expects the Melbourne crowds to stick it to Patrick Reed at this week's Presidents Cup as the fallout continues from the American's cheating scandal.
Reed was sanctioned for flattening out sand behind his ball with two practice swings, but insisted he didn't improve his lie despite conceding he had moved sand and therefore violated the rules. "I think with a different camera angle they would have realised that. If it was from the side you would have seen that with the backswing it was not improving the lie because it was far enough away from the golf ball," Reed said.
