Saturday was supposed to be an exciting day of golf at the Spanish Open, and it was, but for some other reasons. Sky Sports Golf analyst Mark Roe has found himself at the center of backlash following his commentary during the DP World Tour’s Spanish Open broadcast. Fans accused the former European Tour player of repeatedly taking digs at LIV Golf, but without directly naming it.
Mark Roe is an English professional golfer and golf analyst for Sky Sports. He had a 21-year career on the European Tour from 1985 to 2006, playing in over 500 events and winning three tournaments, including the 1989 Massimo Dutti Catalan Open, the 1992 Trophée Lancôme, and the 1994 Peugeot Open de France. He achieved a career-high world ranking of 40 and was known for his practical jokes and character on tour.
