Colin Montgomerie Continues With the Awkward Photos ...


Remember back in 2010, when I posted this photo of Colin Montgomerie and some lady with shovels, and the lady isn't even looking? Everything about the picture was fantastic. The expressions, the random tree, the bulldozer in the back ...

... well, Monty is back, and this time, he's got a few more characters. Call it the Fantastic Four. That's Monty, with, according to the Getty Images caption, "Shaikh Abdulla Bin Khalifa Al Khalifa, Board member of Bahrain International Golf Course Company, Kamal Ahmed, The Chief Operating Officer of The Bahrain Economic Development Board and Susan Stevenson, The General Manager of The Royal Golf Club Bahrain."

Here is one of a few questions I have about this photo; why isn't anyone looking at the camera? Are there really multiple photographers here taking snapshots? Is this a huge moment? Also, Monty totally looks photoshopped in, and with the hands on the hips and the goofy expression, he looks like he's trying to make it on Celebrity Photobombs.

Incredible.

Thanks to Getty Images, as always

I'm watching the Monty-designed course this morning on GC. Looks good. I particularly like the undulated greens.

It may be a groundbreaking event, but resulted in an awkward photo instead.
