What the hell were these two guys thinking? How does their action represent in any way what they are trying to accomplish?
LIVERPOOL, England -- A man who threw purple dye on the 18th green at the British Open was sentenced Tuesday to eight weeks in jail.
Police officers clear up paint bombs that were thrown onto the 18th green by protestors at the British Open on Sunday.
Paul Addison, 40, pleaded guilty to five counts of criminal damage at the Wirral Magistrates Court near Liverpool. Stephen Fletcher, 35, was sentenced to five weeks of unpaid community services after pleading guilty to the same charges.
The two said they represented a group called "Real Fathers 4 Justice." The group is a campaign for father's rights in child custody cases.
Though they left purple stains on the grass as Tiger Woods and Sergio Garcia approached the final hole Sunday at Hoylake, the players didn't seem affected. Woods made a par putt to win the tournament by two shots.
