The players and officials spoke on condition
of anonymity because the tour keeps all
disciplinary matters private.The first incident
was at Riviera in the Northern Trust Open, where
Sabbatini was said to have spoken harshly to a
teenage volunteer who was trying to help him
find a lost ball."He did apologise directly to me.
I hope he meant it and he moved on.""It was raining.
It was hard. We were all stressed trying to make the cut, and I think we might have been behind," Cink
said today."There were a lot of factors. And then
the incident happened."Cink didn't go into details
and said it involved "another player in my group,"
without mentioning Sabbatini by name."It was
embarrassing for me as a golfer," Cink said.
If he is suspended, it would come at a pivotal
time for Sabbatini. The two tournaments that follow
The Players Championship are in the Dallas area,
where Sabbatini lives - Colonial and the Byron Nelson
Championship. Sabbatini is a past champion at
both events.
