Ian Poulter admits Manchester terror attack would make think twice about attending the FA Cup final

Ian Poulter admitted he would be wary of attending the FA Cup final between his beloved Arsenal and Chelsea in the wake of Monday's terrorist attack in Manchester.

Poulter had hoped to be in contention for a first victory since 2012 in the BMW PGA Championship, which would have meant a late tee time and only being able to watch the final on television.

However, after labelling his putting 'pathetic' following a second round of 69 which saw him finish eight shots off the halfway lead, the 41-year-old was not certain he would use his early start on Saturday to make a last-minute trip to Wembley.
