The Solheim Cup, which was taking place at Finca Cortesin, Spain, from September 22 to September 24, got everybody’s eyes hooked on the game. The golf enthusiasts enjoyed the live streaming while sitting back at home. But witnessing such heralded tournaments, even if they are on TV, costs fans extra! However, not this time.
An old LPGA billion-dollar companion made the process feasible by granting a special discount for the ultimate patriotic showdown. As a result, it gained appreciation from an LPGA legend. But it seems the golf community disagrees with her, with chants of disapproval flooding her latest post!

Dottie Pepper is already a controversial character in Solheim Cup history. She made her own motherland wrathful with her words. In an open mic, which was aired throughout America, she used foul language against the USA Solheim Cup compatriots.
She even dared to call them “chokin’ freakin’ dogs” during a tournament in Sweden in 2007. This mishap happened because Pepper thought the channel was on a commercial break while the scene was completely different. As a result of her actions, she became the most discussed topic that year.
Now, she has again sparked controversy in the golf community with yet another escapade. She posted a tweet that said, “Kudos to @KPMG for making this next hour of@SolheimCup commercial free. Great friend to women’s golf,” referring to the $168.12 billion multi-national company.
Kudos to @KPMG for making this next hour of @SolheimCup commercial free. Great friend to women’s golf.

Thus, she tried to mean that KPMG granting the last hour of the match free is of great help for the audience away from the course in Spain. As this news circulated in the golf world, in no time the people catered their varied notions as remarks under the post. And unsurprisingly, Pepper had split up the golf world yet again!
Fans showcase their diverse remarks for Perpper’s appreciation
As the post went viral on social media, it garnered several remarks. Mostly, the tone was diversified, but people poured in their thoughts beneath it.
One fan asked a question to Dottie Pepper about the yardages being publicized.
Do you know why they aren’t showing the yardage? Would be nice to know how far players have coming in on approach shots.

Another fan showcased his criticism of the broadcast.
It’s as if they don’t have enough cameras…we watch the sea instead of the golf!
