Beem celebrates his heroic victory. (Allsport)
Two police officers in Ayr, Scotland will be having a little chuckle to themselves following Rich Beem's amazing USPGA triumph on Sunday. Three years ago Beem crossed the Atlantic to play in his first Open Championship at Carnoustie. Making the most of his trip to the `home of golf', Beem and caddie Steve Duplantis stopped off at Turnberry where, in some style, they acquainted themselves with the local brew. Staggering out of the pub, Beem and Duplantis climbed into their rental truck and, after an hour of trying to sober up, lost patience and decided to drive home. Unfortunately two of Ayr's finest had followed them out and duly pounced. Beem, who was caught at the wheel, was taken to the local police station and later fined and told not to drive in Scotland for 18 months.
