A heated exchange took place on Twitter this week between Kevin Na and another PGA Tour player Grayson Murray who was particularly upset about the time the Sony Open title holder in Hawaii is taking.
It all started when Sirius XM Radio commentator Chantel McCabe posted a message explaining that we can’t get enough of Kevin Na’s famous gesture as he heads for the hole and bends to retrieve his ball before that it does not fall.

A sympathetic tweet to which Grayson Murray, winner of a PGA Tour tournament in 2017 but not at his best at the moment due to personal problems, allowed himself to respond that on the other hand he was “boring to see Kevin Na take 3 minutes to putt”.
If you were penalized for slow play as it should be, you wouldn’t pass a cut either.

The response from the person concerned was quick and Na laughed at the lack of results from his compatriot who remains on a series of 7 missed cuts and 2 retirements between May and July 2021. “Seeing you miss cuts it gets boring,” he wrote.
Somebody please call an ambulance for grayson here ????????

The tone rises and Byeong Hun An, another player on the turn tries to put out the start of the fire with humor by offering to send an ambulance to Grayson. But nothing helps Murray insists and writes “If you were penalized for slow play as it should be the case, you would not pass a cut either.”
If they penalized you like they should for slow play you’d never make another cut either. https://t.co/6oY80JrEDy
