As far as golf fan abuse goes Andy Murray had it lightly, but he still responded in trademark fashion.The British legend hung up his tennis racket just over a year ago and has now picked up a golf club in exchange.Tennis legend Murray was back in competitive action at the Dunhill LinksGettyBut he first had to make his way past some interested fans Competing at the Dunhill Links Pro-Am alongside Eddie Pepperell, Sir Andy is one of the biggest names on a star-studded field, but he’s also possibly the most anxious.Heading to the course through a crowd of fans, one asked the Scot, ‘Are you nervous’, to which he bluntly replied, ‘I am’, provoking much laughter.Murray was famous for his dour takes during his tennis career, which later turned into comic self depreciation, which was clearly on show at Carnoustie.However, later images showed he had nothing at all to worry about as some classy shots went viral in social footage from the DP World Tour.Who else is playing at Dunhill Links?Murray will be playing alongside some huge names from the world of entertainment including Bill Murray, Michael Douglas and his wife Catherine Zeta Jones.He’s also not the only sporting star as icons from three different worlds in ice-hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, surfer Kelly Slater and ex-cricketer Kevin Pietersen will also be playing.For the purists, they’ll instead be keeping their eyes on four other heroes, with a quartet of Team Europe’s Ryder Cup-winning squad on duty.Tommy Fleetwood, Matt Fitzpatrick, Robert MacIntyre and Tyrrell Hatton will all be playing.Hatton is the reigning champion and will play alongside his father, Jeff.It will be the first time for UK-based fans to see their heroes since they beat Team USA 15-13 at the 45th Ryder Cup in New York last weekend.Murray will be playing alongside Hatton and three other Team Europe heroesGettyView Tweet: https://twitter.com/andy_murray?ref_src=twsrc%5EtfwEurope decimated their rivals in Friday and Saturday’s pairings before an almighty comeback in Sunday’s singles made things too close for comfort.American golf fans under the spotlightUnlike Murray, the home fans at Bethpage were far less charming.The tournament was marred by appalling behaviour from American fans particularly during Rory McIlroy and Shane Lowry’s four-balls.McIlroy and his wife had a beer thrown at them, while he was also captured being called a homophobic slur.Meanwhile, Lowry was constantly abused over his weight throughout, only to seal the cup-clinching putt for Europe.Speaking after the event at which he repeatedly told American fans to ‘f*** off’ McIlroy said: “I wish they had let the dogs off the leashes.Fans at Bethpage took things way too far abusing McIlroy and his wifeX“The police out there and the amount of security presence was insane.“Look, nothing was going to happen – there wasn’t going to be a physical altercation or anything like that – but there was a lot of language that was unacceptable and abusive behaviour.“It’s a minority of the crowd, it’s not the majority. The majority of people here are true golf fans and are respectful, but I don’t think we should ever accept that in golf.“I think golf should be held to a higher standard than what was seen out there this week.“Golf teaches you very good life lessons, it teaches you etiquette, it teaches you how to play by the rules, it teaches you how to respect people.“Sometimes this week we didn’t see that. So no, this should not be what is acceptable in the Ryder Cup.”
