Kevin Kisner ber om ursäkt för sin kritik mot CBS sändning av Masters

Kevin Kisner har bett om ursäkt för sin skarpa kritik mot CBS bevakning av golfturneringen Masters. Golfaren som blivit analytiker gick till hårt angrepp mot fördröjda slag under ett poddavsnitt efter Rory McIlroys seger. Kisner medgav att han gått över gränsen i sina uttalanden.

Kevin Kisner, som började som ledande golfanalytiker hos NBC under 2024, gästade Barstool Sports podcast Fore Play efter att Rory McIlroy vunnit Masters. Under diskussionen, som handlade om McIlroys triumf samt Scottie Schefflers och Justin Roses nära missar, levererade Kisner en svordomsfylld kritik av CBS sändning. Han beskrev den som förvirrande, med slag som visades i efterhand snarare än live, och skickade under sändningen ett sms till kollegan Colt Knost där han frågade om de någonsin sände slag live.
