In one of the most Patrick Reed stories of all time, the golfer everyone loves to hate has escalated a personal feud with a threat of legal action over accusations of cheating.
An attorney representing Reed sent a cease-and-desist letter to Golf Channel analyst Brandel Chamblee on Dec. 13 that demanded an end to Chamblee’s labeling of Reed as a “cheater” following a highly publicized incident in which Reed appeared to cheat at the Hero World Challenge last month, according to Golfweek.
The letter would have been sent on Day 2 of the Presidents Cup, the same day Reed’s caddy and brother-in-law reportedly punched a fan as discourse over his alleged cheating reached a fever pitch.
