Editor’s Picks: My hardest golfers

My hardest golfers: No 3 – Dottie Pepper
Where to begin? Well, the ruthless and some would say arrogant American got under the Europeans’ skin to such an extent that they put a picture of her on a punchbag in their team room at the 1998 Solheim Cup. During the 2007 Solheim Cup, as a commentator who thought she was off air, she described the American team as “chokin’, freakin’ dogs”. You have to imagine she would be a fearsome opponent in a scuffle. You certainly couldn’t expect her to play by the rules.
