‘I don't give a s*** what people think' – Scots golf star in foul-mouthed blast at on-course critics
ROBERT MACINTYRE is known for wearing his heart on his sleeve - and many love him for it. For some, it just rubs them up the wrong way. But MacIntyre? He couldn't care LESS what they think. Advertisement 2 Robert MacIntyre is defending his Canadian Open title this week Credit: Reuters 2 And the Ryder Cup hopeful has had a few choice words for his critics Credit: Getty The Scots golf star is defending his Canadian Open title on the PGA Tour this week. MacIntyre, 28, won the tournament last year in emotional style with his father Dougie drafted in as his emergency caddie. The victory was the Oban lefty's first on the elite circuit but it wasn't a straightforward one. Minus the last minute caddie switch, MacIntyre also lost his cool somewhat at a drone that flew over his head before taking a shot. Advertisement MacIntyre isn't one to hide his feelings and on other occasions in his career he's been caught swearing on camera whilst playing. And he infamously called for the iconic 17th hole at St Andrews (the Road Hole) to be "blown up" - which led to fellow pro Eddie Pepperell labelling him as "whiney". Ahead of this title defence, MacIntyre was asked about those who think he is perhaps too passionate and should do more to keep his emotions in check. He responded: "Most of time I don't give a s*** about what's going on. Advertisement "I really don't care about other people's opinions, to be honest with you. "If you're not part of my team, not part of the inner circle, your opinion really doesn't matter to me. "I think that's a massive thing, especially in the sport we play. I think it helps when you're trying to move forward, you're trying to dissect every part of the game to try and get better. "If you take too many opinions in that really aren't trying to help you, then, yeah, it doesn't help at all. Advertisement I think something I like is I don't really care about what others think outside of my team and my friends or my family." This year the Canadian Open is taking place TPC Toronto, as opposed to Hamilton Golf and Country Club where MacIntyre won last year. And while the venue for the event has changed, MacIntyre has still felt a warmth from the Canadian fans - even though he denied them a home winner 12 months ago. "Last year it was special, but to come back to a place that I've got fond memories of, obviously it's a different golf course, but as a place, as a country, with the fans as well. Advertisement "The support I got was unbelievable, all the way until Sunday afternoon when they were obviously wanting a Canadian (MacKenzie Hughes) to win!"

Russell Martin's partner Lucy Pinder is former glamour model and is friends with Gary Lineker and his ex
Russell Martin's partner Lucy Pinder is former glamour model and is friends with Gary Lineker and his ex The former model will be cheering on her partner at Ibrox next season Martin and Pinder went public with their relationship last year (Image: Instagram: @pinderpix ) Russell Martin has been appointed as the new manager of Rangers, with the former Swansea City and Southampton boss signing a three-year deal to take charge at Ibrox. The 39-year-old former Scotland defender had a short stint at the club as a player in 2018 and has now returned as part of a new era for the Scottish giants, who were taken over by a US-based consortium last week. Martin is said to have been the "standout choice" to turn around the fortunes of the team after a disappointing season saw them end the campaign with no silverware. Joining the manager in Glasgow will be his girlfriend, former glamour model Lucy Pinder, with the couple going public with their relationship last year having dated since August. Pinder will likely be a familiar face to many football fans, having risen to international fame for her work in men's magazines - including FHM, Loaded and Nuts - during the 2000s. She was named as one of FHM's '100 Sexiest Women in the World' on three occasions, while she later moved into TV work, landing a presenting role on Nuts TV and appearing on reality shows including Celebrity Big Brother and Hell's Kitchen. The 41-year-old has also tried her hand at acting, starring in comedy horror film Strippers vs Werewolves in 2012 before appearing in made-for-television disaster flick Sharknado 5: Global Swarming five years later. Article continues below While she didn't quite make it to Hollywood herself, Pinder was previously rumoured to be dating Captain America star Chris Evans, having been seen enjoying a daytime date with the actor in January 2015. However, she has now found love with former Wycombe Wanderers and Norwich City defender Martin, who was sacked as Southampton manager in December. With Pinder a die-hard Saints fan, the couple were said to have "grown closer" during the manager's time at St Mary's, following his split from his wife Jasmine - with whom he shares three children - last year. The former glamour model revealed their relationship in August, sharing a photo of her and Martin in his hometown of Brighton - where he was receiving an honorary degree - on Instagram. When their relationship was revealed, a source told The Sun: "They're a match made in heaven - or at least in Southampton. They're mad for each other." Pinder is also close friends with Cardiff-born model and Gary Lineker's ex-wife Danielle Bux, with the two women recently sharing photos of a night of wine and games that was also attended by Martin and the former Match of the Day host. Bux - who was married to Lineker between 2009 and 2016 but has remained close friends with him since - posted pictures on Instagram of the evening with Lineker's son Harry, 31 and her daughter Ella Willis also in attendance. Lineker previously opened up about his relationship with Bux, telling The Mirror that they split up due to the fact that he didn't want any more children. "Danielle and I are best mates, we still speak three times a day, we text all the time," he said. "When she comes to London she stays with me, and when I go to Los Angeles I see her. Article continues below "It might be unusual and people might go, 'That's weird' but, frankly, I don't care. What is normal? Is it better to get divorced and end up fighting, screaming and shouting? Or is it better to get on if you can?"

Lionel Richie, Glasgow review: 'soul pop cabaret'

There is arguably no swifter way to get a full house onside. Following a thunderous band overture of Hello, the veteran performer rose through a blanket of smoke, a clichéd showbiz entrance befitting the cheesiness of the song. And thus the soul pop cabaret of the Say Hello to the Hits tour commenced. Lionel Richie | Calum Buchan Richie mock-choked on his mention of his 50 years in music. He teased about the Scottish weather and joked about his ability to remember his words, then really did appear to stumble over the lyrics of Easy. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Often, his vocal sat low in the mix, even on mawkish ballads Penny Lover and Stuck On You. But these were his songs and he was going to own them with a bit of tag team coverage from his band, manifesting Running with the Night in its full Eighties pomp. Lionel Richie at the Glasgow Hydro | Calum Buchan There was no denying the diversity of the catalogue, touching on reggae, Latin, R&B and rock influences, with The Commodores' smooth Sail On, sunshine optimism of You Are and sturdy funk of Brick House among the more satisfying renditions. Three Times a Lady may be the monster hit but Truly is the best of his piano ballads, arriving with a touch of old school melodrama, even if Richie quailed to belt it out. At least he had the audience to deputise for Diana Ross on Endless Love, but there was no hiding place on a nicely delivered Still.
