A BIG MAC UNHAPPY MEAL

Fed-up MacIntyre is missing camaraderie as lonely Scot lifts lid on eating dinner on his own and life on US tour

- CRAIG SWAN

BOB MACINTYRE last night lifted the lid on the lows of his lonely PGA Tour life.

The Scot is excited about the prospect of returning home again in July for the Genesis Scottish Open and The Open.

But as he fights to make his name over in America, the 27-year-old has been suffering in the States.

MacIntyre's massive decision to move across the Atlantic to further his career is proving a tough business.

In 12 events so far the Oban ace has missed six cuts.

It has been difficult on the course and just as hard off it.

Moving from the DP World Tour, where there's plenty of camaraderie, he has found it's all business in America.

MacIntyre confessed: "It does become a lonely place at the golf side of it.

"I went home for three weeks there recently and felt like I came out a far happier man because it does get on top of you. It's a different environment for me, it has been wild to be honest. It's completely different.

"When you're on the European DP World Tour it's very friendly. If we're struggling with certain things we speak to folk around us.

"You come out here to the PGA Tour, there's less chatting less dinners, just less of that big family feel.
