Montgomerie takes spectacular tumble

Colin Montgomerie let it be known what he thought of the pace of play as he tumbled spectacularly off the first-round leaderboard in the Daily Telegraph Dunlop Masters at the Forest of Arden today.

“Five-and-a-half hours is an hour too long,” said the 41-year-old after a closing triple bogey seven meant he had to settle for a level par 72.
