Sealed with a kiss: havingplayed the round of his life,England’s Mark Roe left the18th green on a high. Ten minutes later his dreamturned into a nightmare
On the threshold of realising a boyhood dream in the 2003 OpenChampionship at a sun-kissedRoyal St George’s, Mark Roe suffered one of the cruellest injustices in golf when his third-round score of 67 – a fourunder par effort witnessed by millions around the world – was disqualified on the grounds that Roe and his playing partner, Jesper Parnevik, had failed to exchange cards on the first tee. To his eternal credit, Roey acceptedhis fate with a grace rarely matchedin all of sport. He shared his memories of that eventful Saturdaywith editor Richard Simmons
KEEPCALM
CARRY ON
AND
Gi: Let’s rewind to Saturday July 19, Royal St George’s...
MR: I’d battled hard to make the cut with a 70 on Friday for a
total of 147. Funnily enough, that second round contained
signs that something special was happening. I started
3,3,3,3,3,3 – six threes out of the blocks. I think I had a putt on
the 7th for another three and I’m thinking, ‘I wonder if anyone
has ever started the Open with seven threes...’. Totally lost my
focus and missed it, obviously. But made the cut OK, and that’s
always the primary goal at the Open. I just remember thinking
that everything just felt right that week – it all just suited my
eye. I liked the way the course was running, hard and fast, you
had to land the ball 30 yards or so short of the green. The put-
ter felt good. Silly things you remember – like on the practice
green the holes just looked to be beautifully cut, inviting. I love
the atmosphere at the Open and felt good about my game.
Gi: So you’ve achieved your first goal – making the cut –
and now you’re revved up for the weekend?
MR: Absolutely. And as was typical for me I was on the 1st tee
in good time on Saturday. I always liked to have a chat with
Ivor [Robson, the starter]. After a couple of minutes I’m think-
ing ‘Where’s Jesper?’. I’ve just seen him on the putting green.
He was cutting it fine. Ivor’s given me my scorecard, which was
always the protocol on the 1st tee. Ivor hands you your card
and you exchange and so on. Anyway, Jesper eventually arrives
and it’s all a bit of a rush. ‘Sorry Roey, been to the loo.’ Ivor an-
nounces us onto the tee and we hit. There was hardly time to
shake hands. We just banged it down towards the fairway and
we were off.
Gi: Jesper wasn’t in for the best of Saturdays?
MR: After all that rushing around he got off to a poor start – in
fact we both did, five apiece at the 1st. I have the original cards
right here [produces them from his desk]. There you go – I
made a three at the 2nd and settled myself. Jesper parred two
and three, and then the thing I remember quite clearly is that
at the 4th I knocked it on in two and three-putted and he has
missed it short and right, then pitched up to about 30 feet and
canned it for a birdie. The hole was a par-five then. I three-
putted for a par. So he’s basically up-and-downed it from the
bundi to make a four and I’ve played two great shots and
walked off with a five. Anyway we carry on...he bogeys six,
eight and nine while I birdied 7 to be out in 35, one under. I
then started to get hot on the back nine: birdied 10 and then
holed my second shot at 13, the slinging right-to-left dogleg. It
was only a sand-iron – 114 yards, one bounce and in. I can re-
member standing in the fairway raising my arms and thinking,
‘Wow, this is now turning into something special’. I was four
under for the round. And the course is playing tough.
Gi: Presumably you're on the leaderboard by now?
MR: On it? I’m on top of the leaderborard. I pick the ball out of
the hole at 13 and see my name being put up there – leading
the Open Championship. In the meantime, things were going
JULY 2011 GOLFINTERNATIONALMAG.COM 79

bad to worse for Jesper, who has bogeyed 10, 13, doubled 14,
bogeyed 15. As I am closing out my round, feeling so calm,
which was unbelievable, I remember coming down 18 and hit-
ting a lovely shot to the green, while Jesper has gone through
the green and OOB. He had to go back to hit another. I’m there
standing on the green looking at a putt for a 66, a putt that
could well see me leading overnight. He’s taking forever. Any-
way, he makes a six and I miss the putt and tap in for a 67. I
remember thinking that’s one of the best rounds of golf I’ve
ever played. I looked and blew three kisses to the camera – one
for my wife Julia and one each for the girls.
Gi: What are your recollections of the next five minutes?
MR: I remember walking to the scorer’s hut and on the way
asking Jesper what he had taken at 18 – a six for a back nine of
43. It had been a horrible day for him. Then I called over the
lady scorer who had walked with us and asked her to go
through my card – because I am not making a mistake today.
This is one of the best rounds of my life and I’m not taking any
chances. A chance of winning the Open. No mistakes. As you
can see on the scorecard, I ticked off my scores as she ran
through her own account. Check, check, check....all 18 holes.
Done. So I know the numbers are right and they add up to 67.
I’ve been through them a thousand times. All I’m focusing on
is the score along the bottom of the card.
Gi: So you've checked it, double checked it, and signed it?
MR: Yep, been through it now at least a million times. And at
this point I hand the card to first scoring official in the scorer's
office. Blue blazer and red rosette, usual drill. He checks it and
puts a black tick on the card next to the totals (look, you can
see the marks right here!) and then passes it to the second
scoring official. He looks through it, and then says: ‘35 - 32 –
congratulations Mr Roe, excellent round of golf, you are free to
go.’ So that’s it. The scorecard’s in. I stand up – ‘Sorry you’ve
had a crap day Jesper’ – and I’m out of there to talk to the
media, Hazel Irvine and the BBC, ESPN, the lot. Just after the
first round of interviews someone comes over and tells me I’m
wanted back in the scorer’s hut. Apparently there’s a problem.
Gi: And your immediate reaction is?
MR: I’m as calm as you like. It’s not me. I’m thinking there
must be a mistake on Jesper’s card – after all I can still hear the
second official scorer’s words ringing in my ears: ‘35-32 – con-
gratulations, Mr Roe, excellent round of golf, you are free to
go’. So it isn’t me. So now I know I’ve made a mistake some-
where on Jesper’s card. He’s taken 81 shots so I’m thinking (a)
I’m going to have to apologise, but (b) you know what, he shot
81, he’s not going to be all that bothered about it. I go in and
there’s David Pepper, chief Rules official. I look at Jesper and
say ‘What’s up – have I made a mistake?’ He didn’t look up: ‘It’s
worse than that Roey’, he said. I looked down at the two cards
sitting there on the table and I see it straight away – the names
in the top left-hand corner of the card don’t tally with the
scores. It’s staring me in the face. “Shit, how have I done that?”
It all flashed back: the rush on the 1st tee, taking the card and
stuffing it in the ball pocket on the bag without thinking. Not
exchanging cards and I’ve signed for an 81. My brain’s going at
a million miles an hour and I’m thinking, ‘Hang on, he’s played
so poorly he hasn’t improved my score on any hole...but one.
The 4th, where he holed across the green for a four. That’s the
only hole he beat me on. Otherwise I could have signed for an
81 and played on. The lady from the BBC was in tears. David
Pepper was trying to find the words. ‘We have looked through
the Rules of Golf to find anything that gives us a way out of
this but we can’t,’ he said. I walked outside and then had to go
and face the BBC for a second time and then the media in the
press centre. All of that time I just kept telling myself to react
and behave in a way that would make my mum, dad and fam-
ily proud of me. Too many people kick and scream and make
excuses in sport.
Gi: I think you’d have every right to kick and scream given
the circumstances? What is the point of two officials check-
ing a card if they don't look at the rudimentary details?
MR: Well, the thing is at the time it’s all happening around you

and you try to handle it in the best way you can.
Gi: Fair enough, but if either of the officials had spotted a
mistake they could have corrected it?
MR: Yeah, that’s all it needed. And I would have been playing
with Tiger Woods on the Sunday. It’s Boy’s Own stuff. I might
have shot 70 and won the Open, who knows. Or I might have
blown it and shot 80. As it was I had to pack my suitcase and
drive home to Bookham. I stopped in the local off-licence,
bought a bottle of champagne because all I wanted to do was
get drunk. Julia didn’t know what to say to me. But she was
brilliant. I basically just drank myself to sleep that night.
Gi: Could you bring yourself to watch the final round?
MR: I watched the last hour or so, came in just as Thomas Bjorn
was imploding in the bunker at 16. And what happens at the
end of it all? A total unknown – Ben Curtis – wins the Open.
That’s when it really hit me hard. I could have been that un-
known who won the Open. My 67 was the lowest round of the
week – nobody shot lower. Who knows? As it was I just went up-
stairs and cried my eyes out. You work your whole life as a pro-
fessional golfer for that one chance – great players have more
than one chance. But a golfer of my calibre, that one opportu-
nity, every child’s dream: this for the Open. I know the Rules are
there to protect the game, but I felt robbed of the opportunity.
The R&A provides scoring officials – one walks with every game.
Are they your scoring officials? Yes they are. They are employed
for the week by the R&A as scoring officials. The two of them
checked the card, ticked it, and both confirmed my score. If a
Rules official on the course gives a ruling that is later proved
wrong, the Ruling stands. So afterwards, that thought crossed
my mind and I think that’s why the Rule was changed some
three years later. They have changed it to say the name at the
top doesn’t matter, as long as you have signed for the correct
score on the card. I actually had a very nice phone call from
David Rickman at the R&A to say for what it’s worth we can’t
take you back to St George’s, but the way you handled it all was
exemplary, and you should be proud of the fact that no one will
go through that again. [As a footnote to this whole episode, a
high-ranking rules official in America emailed Roe’s manage-
ment company to say the same thing had happened at the Mas-
ters and the Masters committee put a line through the two
names on the card and the players concerned carried on.]
Gi: Even if they [the R&A] had found a loophole you would
have been placed in the invidious position of possibly playing
on Sunday knowing that a rule had, possibly, been infringed?
MR: Absolutely right. Somebody asked me this very recently.
Would I have felt comfortable playing in the final round of the
Open with Tiger Woods knowing that the Rule had been broken
and that a sub-ruling had been found to enable me to continue?
Well, it’s a simple answer: No, I couldn’t have played. I would
have to have said ‘Look guys, great gesture but I cannot play on
like that’... my respect for the Rules wouldn’t allow it. But if
they had come back to me with an official line and Rule that en-
abled me to continue I would have played.
Gi: Did the events of 2003 accelerate your plans for retire-
ment in 2006?
MR: No, not at all. I carried on and played and enjoyed the tour-
naments and years after that. But I’d always promised myself
that as soon as I began to resent the taxi ride to the airport on a
Tuesday morning to the airport, that’s when I would call it a
day. If I stopped wanting to give it 100%. My passion for the
lifestyle had just gone out of it. The girls were growing up. I’d
played for 22 years and played 520-odd tournaments. I wanted
a change – I wasn’t sure what that change was but media was
certainly one avenue. I knew I had to stay in touch with the
game I’d been passionate about since the age of 13. So it had to
be within the framework of the game. When I did retire at the
Dunhill Links Championship in 2006 – it was always my dream
to retire at St Andrews – I finished with a 67.
Gi: That’s something of a coincidence....
MR: Yeah, isn’t it just? Once I make a decision I stick to it. I
have never once thought of going back. I was contacted by Se-
tanta Sports on the Monday after I’ve finished playing. They
had just bought rights to the PGA Tour golf and so I talked to
them for a while. But in the end I chose to go with Sky Sports
because I really like the team they had put together and I had
worked with them before. They always looked after me tremen-
dously well as a guest, their facilities were marvellous and they
offered me a contract. It’s a job I love, I work hard at it and try
to give 100% every time I go in.
Gi: What’s the best aspect of it?
MR: I like the whole process, whether in the studio or behind
the microphone. It’s a job you work at and grow in to with ex-
perience. I’m much more comfortable now than I was in the
early days. I still do a lot of research, try to keep myself ahead
of the game, which you have to. And the coaching side of
things has helped me because I am in touch with the players at
grass roots level. I know what’s going on.
Gi: Is there an edge between you and Butch [Harmon]? There
has been some fantastic jousting between the two of you,
particularly during the Ryder Cup?
MR: No, I get on great with Butch and think the world of him. I
love working with him. That piece to camera, when we were
speculating on the singles line-ups at the Ryder Cup on what
amounted to a giant iPad, was great fun and we loved doing it.
Once the cameras are off us we kill ourselves laughing. The
Ryder Cup was a crazy week, incredible viewing. I think it’s
wonderful that we now have the Masters and Sky do golf so
well. Better than anyone. From the editing, the opening and
closing sequences to the team’s knowledge and passion for the
game, they are the best in the world. For me, head and shoul-
ders above all of the other networks.
Gi: Take Peter Alliss out of the equation and it’s increasingly
difficult to see what the BBC have left to offer regarding cov-
erage of golf.
MR: Peter is an icon, we all know that. He has the voice that is
synonymous with BBC golf, he’s a wonderful narrator and ter-
rific commentator full stop. But he’s not in touch with the game
today. People at home watching are not stupid and they love
their golf. They want to know some inside knowledge, they
want to know details on each player, they want to feel like they
are a part of the action, not listen to stories about ducks on the
pond, kids eating ice creams and so on. That’s all nice and adds
colour. But you know what, it’s about the golf. And the viewers
want to watch and learn about golf.

Gi: You had a great short game as a player – was that some-
thing you were particularly aware of?
MR: Like most professional golfers, you just do it. I spent the
bulk of my time as a kid growing up on the chipping and put-
ting green. I would spend all day at Hallowes Golf Club, near
Sheffield. There was a big stone gatepost near the green and I’d
take my flask and sandwiches and I sit my picnic on the post
and settle in for the day learning how to chip and putt. I spent
my life on and around that green – in the bushes, in the thick
grasses, the bunkers. You don’t think about it, you just do it.
Out on tour I knew that I had this skill, I could see the right
shot and found it relatively easy to do. My short game never let
me down. A good friend in the States once called me up and
said: ‘You know what, for the last three years you’ve been the
best bunker player in the world.’ He followed all the stats on all
the tours wordwide. I hadn’t even thought about it.
Gi: How did the coaching career come about?
MR: By accident, really. I was in media, happy as could be. It
was up at the Scottish Open and I walked into the locker room
and there was Lee Westwood. I had been commentating with
Ewen [Murray] up in the box. I told Lee that I had been watching
him and that he was very close to swinging it like he did in
2000/1. He said: ‘Yeah, but I can’t chip, can I? If I could chip
like you I’d be alright.’ I told him that he’d never chip like me
and walked away! He then came after me and said, ‘No, I’m seri-
ous, can you give me a chipping lesson?’. Anyway we arranged
to meet up at Carnoustie on the Tuesday of the Open. This was
2007. And I remember thinking to myself, ‘Why the hell did you
agree to do that? You are talking to
one of the best players in the world
and now you have to think about
what you did and how you can
help.’ So I spent the best part of
the next week with a wedge in my
hands just trying to figure out my
chipping. Anyway, I arrived
at Carnoustie and I was
bloody nervous, to be
honest with you. I
watched Lee hit a
few shots, told
him what I
thought, gave him the reasons why he didn’t control the flight
and the spin of the ball, and outlined why he was limited, tech-
nically, in skills of spinning the ball. Almost straight away he
began to see thuings differently.
Gi: Is it awkward when a player has a different long-game
coach – in Lee’s case a long relationship with Pete Cowen?
MR: Lee has been coached off and on by Pete over the years,
and he is a magnificent long-game coach. I knew him as a
player on tour, a great ball striker. But he was not a great chip-
per or putter. That’s the way I saw it, anyway; we each have our
own area of expertise. And a wonderful knowledge of the long
game doesn’t mean he knows the short game. Equally, I can cat-
egorically state that I do not get involved in the full swing – I
leave that to people like Pete and my Sky Sports colleague
Denis Pugh, another swing coach I rate as one of the best in the
world. But here’s the quote on my website – “It was a eureka
moment.” - Lee Westwood. After an hour I had asked him for his
thoughts on what we had discussed and he told me it was the
best short-game lesson he’d ever had. I thought he was taking
the piss, but he meant it. In fact, he asked if we could do an-
other half-hour. We went to a spot a few feet below the level of
the green, and he was pitching up – six or seven feet up – and
spinning it for fun. I’d never seen Lee do that before. I knew the
information I’d given him was good. And he knew it, too. The
rest of that week he kept coming up to me saying, ‘You
wouldn’t believe the shot I played here or the up and down I
made there.’ We worked together for about a year and a half. I
knew that I could not make Lee a more prolific winner, because
he was already a prolific winner. But I believed – and still do –
that the improvement in his short game could help him win a
first major. The lovely thing about short-game coaching is it’s
an art form. Once you have given someone the basic technical
skills, it’s about teaching them how to address all situations
defined by lie and slope. As their technical prowess im-
proves, so their visualisation changes, because they see shots
differently. I should add that one of the important elements of
what I do is that I demonstrate all of these skills. I can still beat
most of my players on the chipping green. Not all the time. I
think Francesco Molinari has beaten me twice in seven months.
And when he does he’s high-fiving all around the green. Com-
petition is important because a player has to be comfortable
under pressure. Ross Fisher I rarely beat now. He’s exceptional.
Gi: Why did you and Lee part company?
MR: I still don’t really understand it. I had been up to see him at
his house, where he has a fantastic short-game area, and we had
a good session. We finished off pitching short-sided over a
bunker and he holed out to win a fiver. He texted me as I was
driving home – great session, etc. This was in ’09, and the follow-
ing week I called to ask what his plans were coming down to the
PGA at Wentworth. His reply knocked me sideways – he said
thanks for everything, really appreciate it but feel a bit un-
comfortable with one or two things, let’s have a break for a
while. It felt like someone had hit me on the back of the
head with a baseball bat. Don’t get me wrong, the
friendship is still there, always will be. But I
couldn’t understand it. Everyone
in the game was remark-
ing on how he

was finally getting his short game to match his long game. He
went from 56th in the world to 8th. What I didn’t know at the
time was that after not working with Pete [Cowen] for a few
years he had gone back to him. I don’t know for sure. One thing I
do know is that Lee’s long game is now about as good as it gets –
Pete has taken him back to where his swing was in 2000-1. But I
think I can be very honest about this and say his short game has
not gone forward with it. I feel for me there was a job unfinished.
But I thank Lee just about every day because out of that experi-
ence working with him I created The Art of the Short Game, my
coaching business. Next up was Richard Finch, who, at 129th in
the Order of Merit was on his way to losing his card. We did a lit-
tle work, he kept his card, and within seven months had won the
New Zealand and the Irish Open and was 10th in the OOM with a
million euros. I’ve watched Ross [Fisher] win the European Open
at the London Club by seven shots – his short game was stun-
ning that week. Nicolas Colsearts is another, and I’ve just started
working with Justin Rose, which is exciting. And I truly get more
pleasure coaching than I did playing the game of golf.
Gi: You were pretty close to Seve in your 21 years on tour.
Tell me about his influence and impact.
MR: I was 13 and had just started playing golf when Seve hit
that chip shot through the bunkers at Royal Birkdale in 1976.
He captured my imagination – along with that of just about
every kid in the world who saw him that week. Around that
chipping green at Hallowes I would ask myself, ‘What would
Seve do here?’ And, like I’ve said, it was my short game that en-
abled me to achive what I have in golf. It wasn’t easy. I went to
Tour School four times before I eventually made it through in
1985. Those were golden days on the European Tour and I can
remember the first time I played with Seve. It was the Dutch
Open at Hilversum. When I put my score in for the third round
I noticed I was tied on the same total as Seve, so there was a
chance I might be paired with him on Sunday. Sure enough, the
draw broke my way. I barely slept that night, arrived at the
course early to prepare. I can remember telling myself not to let
him see how nervous I was. Getting the ball on the peg on the
1st tee was a trial in itself, my hands were shaking that much. I
made a horribly quick swing and prayed for some sort of con-
tact. It was all a blur. Seve hit off and I can remember not know-
ing whether to walk with him or let him go and walk behind. I
decided to walk ahead, slowly. And then I felt his presence at
my side, shoulder to shoulder, and he says: ‘It’s no easy playing
with me, huh?’. That’s all it took to break the ice. When we
came to the 18th we were level and I had a putt of 10 feet or so
to finish one ahead and third in the Dutch Open. I knocked it
three feet by and then missed the return. Meltdown in front of
my hero – not to mention costing me what was a fortune in
those days. ‘You play well,’ Seve said, putting his arm round me
as we left the green. ‘It’s OK, There will be many more three
putts in your career, but you will be a good player.’ That was
Seve for you. He went out of his way to make you feel better.
Gi: Remind me of the Augusta practice round.
MR: I played nine holes with Seve in practice at an Open, I think
it was ’93 at Lytham, and he started talking about Augusta. He
started telling me just how brilliant it all was – you could tell he
was enthralled with the place. ‘When you get there,’ he said, ‘we
play a practice round.’ Anyway, in 1995 I finished in the top-15
in the US Open at Shinnecock Hills, leading European. That got
me into the Masters. The invitation came through on Christmas
Eve. So off I went in 1996. I arrived at the course early on the
Sunday, walked out to the range mid-morning and who is there
hitting balls but Seve. He wanders over. ‘You remember, I prom-
ised you a practice round – we go?’ And we played 18 holes to-
gether at Augusta, no crowds at all – they were not allowed in
until Monday – and so it was a unique atmosphere. And that
round of golf will live forever as the greatest moment of my
life. Without doubt the fondest memory in the game of golf. He
challenged me to play all of the shots around the green and I
held my own. He was a genius. Generous to a fault.
Gi: To be in his company makes you feel something special.
MR: David Feherty summed it up as well as anyone in the Euro-
pean Tour’s tribute Hasta Siempre Seve.... He was recounting
the Ryder Cup at Valderrama, and it’s worth repeating:
“I remember looking at Seve in the team room at the 1991 Ryder
Cup and thinking to myself that he seemed physically smaller
than when I saw him on the golf course or on television. Any
other week other than the the Ryder Cup, he didn’t know me very
well. But that one week he cared so much that he went out of his
way to make me feel like I was a friend of his. I only realised in
retrospect that it wasn’t that he looked smaller – it was that he
made me feel bigger.” - David Feherty
That, for me, is always the way I always felt around Seve.
Playing or talking golf with Seve, he made me feel like a giant.
