Pablo gives his putter a talking to. Literally!

Pablo Larrazabal had a Happy Gilmore moment with his putter at the Portuguese Masters. After shooting a first round 71, where according to Twitter, he had hit the ball the best he had all season.

Best long game of the season + worst putting pf the season = level par..... a lot of work to do tomorrow to be at the weekend

He then switched up his social media and took to Instagram to give his Odyssey Works V-Line Versa (now that's a mouthful) a serious talking to. 

Everyone who has ever played this daft game has at some point felt like this. I know I have. And often a putter change is as good as a rest. Well hopefully that's the case for Pablo, as he followed up his 71 with a 69, and as we write this is looking likely to miss the cut. 

Bye bye Portugal... going home earlier than i though...my long game is in good shape going to the final series. i have to work on my putting

For all his harsh words, it looks like the putter may have had a stay of execution...

Yes... the putter is making the flight to Barcelona... but i have a couple of meeting with him over the weekend...
