Sergio Garcia heckled with 'Fried Chicken' at US Open

Just when you thought it was safe to go back on the golf course…

UNLESS YOU’VE BEEN living under a rock with no broadband coverage in recent weeks, you’ll know that Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia had a wee falling out after the Spaniard had some ill-advised racial-stereotyped menu suggestions should he ever invite the world number one around for dinner.

Well, that spat ended before the tournament began. But fans are much less forgiving than Tiger, after the boos died down before Garcia teed off today, one shouted a timely reminder of why the abuse was being served in his direction.

    Irish people all like potatoes and drink. The French all love cheese. The Mexicans all eat beams

    *beans. The Asians all like rice. The Italians like pasta and the Americans like fast food. While a lot of those generalisations are culturally accurate but sometimes insensitive, non of them are racist. Black people all like fried chicken shouldn’t be that upsetting.

    Tiger probably fills his trophys with fried chicken…. Why he offended? He likes to fill things apparently anyway…
