 The pair were all smiles before they teed off on Friday |
Colin Montgomerie has played down his row with Thomas Bjorn. The pair exchanged angry words at the Johnnie Walker Classic on Friday after Bjorn felt the Scot had disturbed him as he tried to play a shot.
"It's the first time for me and hopefully the last. I can't understand the whole thing," said Montgomerie.
"Talk about making a mountain out of a molehill. I didn't know he was playing his shot and I said sorry, but this thing happens every week out here."
"Usually an argument is with two people and I don't have an argument with anybody."
Montgomerie had put his second shot into the water at the par-five seventh on Friday and, after taking a compulsory drop shot and playing his fourth, headed across a wooden bridge that leads on to the green.
However the Scottish golfer's actions disturbed Bjorn, who was already on the green with American Shaun Micheel.
The two exchanged words outside the scoring room before they were called into a private room by tournament director Miguel Vidaor, where the matter was seemingly resolved.
Bjorn said at the time both he and Montgomerie did "some things wrong" during their round but the 32-year-old would not elaborate what those wrong doings were.
"Everyone knows well enough we have our tempers and we both want to play well and that's it as there is really nothing in it," he said.
