SCOTTISHGOLFVIEW.COM SAYS
"SORRY" TO RONNIE MacASKILL
AND SCOTTISH GOLF UNION
Last Thursday, Scottishgolfview.com carried a story under the heading
“ADMIN MIX-UP COSTS RICHIE RAMSAY A PLACE IN ARNOLD PALMER INVITATIONAL.”
In the article, Ronnie MacAskill, Director of Golf at Royal Aberdeen Golf Club, was quoted as saying:
“The ball would appear to be in the Scottish Golf Union’s court because they are responsible for looking after Richie’s administration. It is all part of a learning curve for him as an individual. I’m sure he will be double-checking registrations in future.”
The quote was first published in an Aberdeen newspaper and Scottishgolfview.com, in good faith, repeated it.
The Editor of Scottishgolfview.com now accepts that Mr MacAskill, pictured above, did not make that statement with its implied criticism of the Scottish Golf Union and is happy to apologise to both for any embarrassment caused.
