You remember him, the virulent racist who racistly displayed racist WHITE golf balls like a racist on TV while non-racist Lee Elder was being introduced.

Well the Masters has had quite enough of this racist. Don't let the door hit you on your racist arse on the way out, you racist. You're probably a Grand Kleagle in the KKK and take extra starch in your Klan robes.

The son of legendary golfer Gary Player has reportedly been banned from The Masters following his viral golf ball stunt.

Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and Lee Elder, the first black man to ever compete at The Masters, were part of the opening ceremony at Augusta National last Thursday. During the opening ceremony, Player’s son, Wayne Player, was seen trying to get a sleeve of golf balls into the view of the TV cameras.

Wayne Player was heavily criticized on social media for the stunt.

So having balls at the Masters is no longer allowed.

Maybe they can shoot skeet. Much more fun in my opinion.

I imagine this has much more to do with his shameless pimping of merchandise during their ceremonial drive activities.

And good for them. Get your "used car salesmen" tactics off my tv. This is The Masters, not QVC.

ANCG should have worried more about those shitty shameful greens they put out there.

It does and it's pretty clear that's the problem if you read the article. Gary Player's other son must hate his brother too because he backed the banning.

You're supposed to keep your balls in Tiger's latest hooker's purse.

Wut? They were rolling like butter. Oh, you saw a few spots that appeared somewhat brown on your HD tv and shot at 4K UHD.

That's sweet.

As per usual, the racism angle was ludicrous (and expected). It was a classless and tacky stunt. If The Masters want him banned, it’s their tournament, and I’m good with it.

I’m lost. I see the typical screeching on Twitter saying “he clearly knew what he was doing he’s looking at the camera!”

Media and masters both calling the product placement racist?

Wtf is going on here? Clown world

So, the Masters is prejudice against Africans.

Come on man - it had nothing to do with racism but everything to do with him hawking golf balls for a company he's a part of. It was a shitty thing to do and the members AGNC have every right to ban him for being a shite bag.

There's a larger context.

The day it happened a LOT of people took to social media to brand the guy a racist for being disrespectful to Lee Elder. If it was simply about product placement, a slap on the wrist would have sufficed.

Plus this happened in Georgia, and there's the whole Georgia = Jim Crow stuff happening right now
