Veteran golf coach Hank Haney hit back at criticism from Tiger Woods following his own remarks about women's golf which triggered uproar.
Haney was suspended from his SiriusXM PGA Tour Radio show last week after comments about the US Women's Open field which were branded "racist and sexist" by golf star Michelle Wie.
Several women's players joined the condemnation of Haney's remarks, while Woods, a former student of Haney's, also backed his suspension, saying the instructor had "got what he deserved." "Just can't look at life like that," Woods told reporters.
In a post on Twitter on Tuesday, however, Haney responded angrily to the criticism from his former student.
"Amazing how @tigerwoods has become the moral authority on issues pertaining to women," Haney wrote.
"I spent 6 great years coaching Tiger, and not one time did he ever hear me utter one sexist or racist word," he continued, before alluding to the former world number one's 2009 sex scandal.
"Now, in addition to being a 15-time major champion, I guess he thinks he's also a mind reader? #glasshouses."
