IT’S NOT A BUNDLE OF LAUGHS FOR EDDIE NOW
EDDIE PEPPERELL’S tweets remain as drily amusing as ever but behind the wit lies a sad and precipitous fall from grace. This time three years ago, he was the British Masters champion and on the cusp of the world’s top 30. Now the 30-year-old from Oxford is languishing in 372nd place and, beginning at the Portugal Masters on Thursday, left with a couple of weeks to salvage his full status on the European Tour for next year. Needing to move up a minimum of 17 spots from his current position of 139th, let’s wish him well.
