DUBLIN, Ohio – Hank Haney's insensitive comments on women's golf at the start of the week on his PGA Tour SiriusXM radio show did not lack outrage. After his round Friday at Memorial Tiger Woods, it was the last to share controversy.
"He deserved it," Woods said of Haney's suspension from the radio show. "I just can not look at life like that. And he obviously said what he meant, and he got what he deserved.
Haney coached Woods for six years before the split in 2010.
On SiriusXM's Wednesday show, Haney and co-host Steve Johnson discussed the women's Open this week in the United States. When asked to predict a winner, Haney said, "I'm going to predict a Korean."
"I can not name six players on the LPGA Tour," said Haney. "Maybe I could. Well … I'll leave with Lee. If I did not name a name, I would have many. "
Haney was suspended Thursday from the series and, according to a statement, PGA Tour officials are "reviewing its status on SiriusXM."
"I accept my suspension and I apologize again," said Haney in his statement.
