Social networks on the Internet are outraged by the treatment of Tianlang Guan in the Augusta Masters

Our friends at Golf 76, specialized in informing with criteria about the beautiful sport of golf, tell us that Tianlang Guan is highlighting this year 2013 at the Augusta Masters. Because the first day was, according to them, the outstanding player of the first day because of the maturity he has shown in the field for his 14 years old. However, on the second day he has been the protagonist, especially in social networks, because he received on the 17th hole the penalty with a slow blow.

And is that Tianlang went over the 40 seconds stipulated to make his game. Veteran players have commented that if the conditions of the field are complicated, especially because of the wind, it is normal for the young player to have doubts about which suit to choose by making his playing time higher than what the rule says. In Golf 76 they tell us that Tianlang Guan's reaction has been to accept the sanction as a gentleman and show that, for his age, he not only surprises by his game, but by his maturity.

Tianlang Guan is 14 years old and has been playing since he turned 4. At age 11 he was already a children's champion and with 13 he won the Asia-Pacific championship and thus, an invitation to go to the Augusta Masters.

Although I have no criteria to know if Tianlang Guan is too young to play golf in a tournament like the Augusta Masters, the truth is that his progression is spectacular, his game is champion and has a tremendous journey. We hope you have a lot of patience, good advice and a lot of strength to endure and that we can enjoy your game for many years.

Ovid at Golf 76 he tells us that Tianlang's parents have accepted the risk of their son training so hard and hard since childhood to become an elite player. It may be a risky decision although I imagine that the Chinese machinery will be delighted with this young athlete who will be pampered and taken care of to make it a world reference. For now, social networks are delighted with him especially for his dazzling and brilliant game. We will follow you very carefully in Golf76.
