Overview

• During the second round at Broadmoor Golf Club, Padraig Harrington accused NBC analyst Roger Maltbie of breaching golf etiquette by refusing to help search for a lost ball
• KOAA reporter Brett Forrest’s footage captured Harrington telling Maltbie, “Never on a golf course stand and look at somebody looking for a golf ball,” while caddie Ronan Flood attempted to defuse the dispute
• Maltbie, a five-time PGA Tour winner turned NBC commentator, defended his position by explaining his broadcasting duties and reminding Harrington, “I’m not a player”
• Despite the exchange, Harrington shot a 67 to sit at six under par, tied with Stewart Cink and Mark Hensby for the 54-hole lead
• Maltbie will continue walking with Harrington’s group in the final rounds, leaving the etiquette debate unresolved as the tournament heads into its weekend conclusion
