IDIOT AFTER ROUND 2 INCIDENT

Ian Poulter will be paired with Hideki Matsuyama for Saturday's third round of the WGC-Cadillac Championship. The two players, both at 5 over, will tee off at 11:15 a.m. at Trump National Doral, more than two hours before the final group.
So what makes this pairing interesting? Well, here's why:
"Playing with Matsuyama tomo. He buried his putter in the 13th green 5 ft from the hole, Referee had to repair the crater. Because he didn't," Poulter tweeted Friday night via his Twitter account, @IanJamesPoulter.
Poulter was referring to an incident that apparently happened Friday. Poulter was playing in the group behind the 21-year-old from Japan when Poulter says Matsuyama left a sizeable mark in the 13th green with his putter. According to Poulter, a referee and not Matsuyama had to repair the damage.
But Poulter didn't stop there. Here are a few other tweets on the subject:

• "Im no saint and first to say. But that was disgusting. I wouldn't bury a putter in a green 5 ft from a hole and have players behind deal with it."
• "Why should Matsuyama leave a crater in the green for others to putt over, or have to call a referee to repair the damage. Idiot."
• "I can't wait to. @Lainger66 are you going to speak to him like a man or just blast him on twitter like all the other keyboard warriors?”

Let's just say the scene on the first tee at 11:15 a.m. is setting up to be an awkward one.
