Bob MacIntyre puts sore losers to shame with classy response to US Open heartache
So much for Justin Rose being a shoo-in for golf's 'most gracious loser of the year' award. At the very least, Bob MacIntyre has provided some enriching competition for his Ryder Cup partner with his own classy response to agonising defeat at the US Open on Sunday night. In an era in which the entitlement of the multi-millionaire pros continues to reach shameless and unprecedented heights, the game surely owes the British duo a debt for their well-timed sportsmanship. While Rose hugged and congratulated Rory McIlroy after watching the world No 2 hole the putt to beat him in the Masters play-off, MacIntyre provided his own lesson in succumbing with honour. Unlike certain runners-up of recent US Open vintage who screeched out of the car park moments after their fate was confirmed, MacIntyre, the 28-year-old from Oban, hung around the Oakmont clubhouse to shake the hand of JJ Spaun. The American appreciated the gesture, calling MacIntyre 'a great guy and a great player', but his admiration only multiplied when shown the clip of his reaction when Spaun pulled off his grandstand moment. MacIntyre had finished more than half an hour before, coming back from an overnight seven-shot deficit to take the clubhouse lead on one-over. As a mark of his quality in a storm-delayed final round blighted by a course covered in puddles, MacIntyre was the only player who started the day in the top 20 who broke 70, with a 68. Spaun was also on one-over as he stepped on to the penultimate teebox. At this stage, many wondered why MacIntyre had not headed directly to the range to stay loose for a play-off. But with the light fading, he had been told by officials that if it did go to two extra holes, they would be held over to Monday. So MacIntyre took a seat in the clubhouse and watched the denouement on television. He first saw Tyrrell Hatton bogey the 17th and 18th to lose his chance – the Englishman eventually finished with a share of fourth before labelling the course set-up as 'unfair' – and then looked on as Spaun birdied the 17th after a brilliant drive on to the green. One ahead, Spaun was 65 feet away from the hole on the 18th in two and in three-putt territory. There was still hope for MacIntyre. But then, Spaun holed out for an outrageous birdie and a two-shot victory and as his putter disappeared into the air and the tears poured down his face, the coverage switched to the vanquished. Except MacIntyre was not sitting there with his head in his hands, he was applauding, with a huge smile and exclaiming 'Wow!' Later, MacIntyre explained his response. 'J J won the golf tournament,' he said. 'He's dreamed of it. Everyone's dreamed of that moment. For him to pour in the winning putt, I mean, nothing I can do. Fair play. I'm happy for him.' @golfoncbs Incredible sportsmanship from runner-up Robert MacIntyre #golf #golftiktok #usopen ♬ original sound - Golf on CBS MacIntyre seemed bemused about the praise for simply behaving in what he considered to be an entirely natural fashion. Rose felt the same after Augusta. But in a week in which we witnessed McIlroy throwing clubs and smashing tee-boxes and of first blanking the media before consenting to talk and declaring ' I feel like I've earned the right to do whatever I want to do, yeah', the injection of humility was much welcome. Up to a career-high 12th in the world, MacIntyre must be one of the favourites for next month's Open at Royal Portrush, the Ulster links where he finished sixth on his major debut six years ago. 'There's no reason why I can't win a major championship,' he said. 'I thought I had this one, but, yeah, it's about majors. That's my goal now.'

EXCLUSIVE Paris Hilton lays bare 'painful' aftermath of leaked sex tape that was filmed when she was only 19 YEARS OLD
Paris Hilton got emotional as she opened up about the 'painful' aftermath of her infamous leaked sex tape... admitting that her then-boyfriend's brutal betrayal will affect her the 'rest of her life.' During a recent sit-down with Louis Theroux at Spotify Beach in Cannes, France, for Cannes Lions 2025, the former reality star, 44, laid bare the 'heartbreak and devastation' that she endured after her now-ex Rick Salomon shared intimate footage of them making love back in 2003. She had filmed the video with Rick two years prior when she was only 19 years old. 'It was the most painful experience I've ever been through in my life,' Paris reflected during the event on Monday. 'To trust somebody and have them put something out in the world that no one was supposed to see... and then to have people judge me based on one night with someone I trusted... that's something that will affect me for the rest of my life.' The blonde beauty said the public scrutiny over the tape was 'heartbreaking and devastating,' especially because it came right before the release of her reality show The Simple Life. 'Back then, the media, the public, everyone was just so cruel to me. It was so heartbreaking and devastating,' she continued. 'I had worked so hard and I wanted to be respected, I was about to come out with my reality show and then all of a sudden this happened to me.' Paris pointed out that now, it is illegal to release sex tapes without the explicit consent of the individuals involved in California. 'Today, that would be illegal. Back then, it wasn't [looked at] that way and I was vilified for it. I was just a teenage girl,' she said. 'Looking back on it, it was one of the most painful things but to know today it's illegal if it happens to other girls, maybe things need to happen to certain people for it to change for others and I try to see it in that way.' Paris previously explained in her 2023 book Paris: The Memoir that she felt 'weird and uncomfortable' about filming herself and Rick 'making love,' but claimed that he ultimately pressured her into doing it. 'He had often said it was something he did with other women, but I felt weird and uncomfortable about it. I always told him, "I can't. It's too embarrassing,"' she wrote. 'He told me if I wouldn't do it, he could easily find someone who would, and that was the worst thing I could think of – to be dumped by this grown man because I was a stupid kid who didn't know how to play grown-up games. 'The truth is, I wanted to be alive in a sensual way. I wanted to feel like a woman who's comfortable in her own skin.' She said he vowed that 'no one else would ever see it,' and insisted that she would never 'under any circumstances be involved in the production of an amateur teen porn video.' 'It was the most painful experience I've ever been through in my life,' Paris reflected during the event on Monday 'If this was something I had chosen to do, I would have owned it,' she stated. 'I would have stood tall in my Louboutins and said, "Yup, that was my choice." 'I would have stood by it, capitalized on it, licensed the f**k out of every frame, and then boogied on over to the bank without apologizing to anyone.' Elsewhere during her sit-down with Louis, Paris took a brutal swipe at Donald Trump... years after she 'pretended' she voted for him. Paris famously showed her support for Trump back in 2016 after the election, stating at the time, 'I've known him since I was a little girl, so, yes [I voted for him].' However, in her memoir years later, she claimed that she had lied about casting her vote for Trump because he was 'an old family friend,' but hadn't actually voted at all. During her interview with British podcast host Louis on Monday, he asked the star what her relationship was like with Trump. 'I only knew him when I was a teenager in New York, that was a long time ago,' Paris explained. 'What was the vibe [back then] - friendly? Warm? Orange?' Louis jokingly went on. Paris then responded with a dig at the businessman-turned-politician's famously over-tanned skin. 'He probably could have used a new spray tanner,' she said with a laugh.
