With World Cup on tap, European Golfers at a huge disadvantage

With the Soccer World Cup starting soon, and most European nations being soccer mad, I can imagine that some of the European players, especially the English, having their minds on their countries soccer teams.

Time difference will also make a huge impact. How can some of these players be expected to tee off in the early morning after spending all night watching games of soccer on TV?

Maybe the relative tours can alter tee times to suit the schedule of the soccer teams. I can imagine Paul Casey holding up the starter for five minutes while David Beckham shoots a penalty goal for England.

Will this sort of thing happen? I doubt it. But, the next few weeks will have some fine golfing television viewing. Oh and a couple of soccer games too.
