Instead, the tide of popular support swelled from the winner’s interview a watery-eyed Alderson gave in the wake of triumph at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande.
Fighting back tears, the victor recalled the years of bullying he had endured at school, and even some golf clubs.
“Normal people just think people with disabilities are different and they’re probably easier to be bullied and picked on,” Alderson told CNN Sport.
“I’ve known Spud for a long time, so I know if he’s having a mini blow-up,” Blucher said.
“If you’re being bullied, just do your best to ignore it and be the better person,” he said.
