Pettersson clubs go awol

Swede Carl Pettersson was suffering every professional’s nightmare at Carnoustie today – ready to go, but no clubs to play with.

The US Tour-based Pettersson flew from Chicago to London on Sunday night and then caught a connecting flight to Edinburgh. But the clubs did not make it.

“I’m hoping they will arrive, but I’m getting some others together just in case and so I can practise today,” he said.
