Paul Azinger knows that there’s a great old saying in golf, he just can’t remember it

Part of being a pundit is having a wealth of knowledge to draw on. Not only is it vital to know information about the sport and interesting facts about the players, but you also need a good general knowledge too so that you can make interesting observations or add a witty comment to your analysis.

Knowing the odd old saying is also handy to give you a sage air of wisdom, which is what Paul Azinger was attempting last night on the BBC coverage of the Masters, except for one tiny problem: he had a huge brain fart and forgot the old saying entirely.

Without a doubt, this is our favourite bit of commentary from the tournament from the former US Ryder Cup captain.
