Friendly Reminder To Golf Pros: Do Not Call 911 When Your Backpack Gets Stolen

Theft is dreadful and I do feel for Bud Cauley, who played last week’s PGA Championship after getting in as an alternate. Experiencing a break-in resulting in the loss of his backpack undoubtedly caused enormous inconvenience and frustration.

However, reading that he called 911 and was unhappy he could not get through or to get an officer on the scene, seems like a fine opportunity to remind everyone that 911 is for emergencies only.

I could only read half the comments but I’m fairly sure that by the end the Governor was the thief and jamming the 911 lines to cover up his crime.

Tpc Harding is a great golf course but you can have the rest of that place. My car window got busted in yesterday, in the middle of a busy street and someone stole my backpack. i called 911 and couldn’t get a police officer to come because they were so overworked. Dump!
