It seems they were all over the place... cellphone-equipped golf fans snapping shots of the stars at HSBC Champions. Despite signs that warned against it and marshals monitoring the crowd, the frenzied photogs were not deterred.
Tiger Woods was naturally the most sought-after subject of the day and complained about the ambulatory mass of distraction that pursued him for his entire round, cameras clicking incessantly.
With the world's number one player complaining, it'll be interesting to see how the tournament handles the situation in the coming days.

That's too funny - and yet - can anybody really be surprised ?
ReplyDeleteThey shouldn't call them shutterbugs. They should just call them bugs.
ReplyDeleteAnd there should be a spray for them.
When I went to the US Open in Shinnecock with my son, we had to empty our pockets. Cell phones were not allowed and had to be checked if you brought them. If you had a phone on you when you got the front of the LONG line, then back to the end you went. If you want to take photos, go on a practice round day when they are allowed.
ReplyDeleteTo Steve's point, even here in the US it's amazing how many people don't realize that cell phones, cameras, etc. aren't permitted at most golf tournaments during tournament play. It's a realatively new sport in China, I'm sure it's not well known there. Seems like it should be obvious but not so much if you yourself don't play.
ReplyDeleteWoW!

The importance of cell phone spy has increased the competition in the wireless service provider industry, making cell phones very affordable and very easy to use. Cell phones have become almost a status symbol in addition to the convenience and security that comes from owning them.
