Ashley Perezwife of American golfer Beat Perez, went on a bizarre Instagram rant Saturday after witnessing several attacks on social media. It came hours after Pat announced his commitment to the Saudi-backed LIV Tour.
Perez, 46, is the latest PGA Tour professional to join the controversial LIV league, which boasts a star-studded roster that includes: Phil Mickelson, Dustin Johnson, Bryson DeChambeau and Patrick Reed. Things were a little different, however, as Perez was one of the loudest when Mickelson first expressed support for the rival tour despite Saudi human rights atrocities.
In her latest Instagram video, Ashley claimed that she was a basketball ace. Michael Jordan had called Perez to assure the Arizona native that the Jordan Brand would remain his sponsor.
“So if anyone feels the need to say anything, and I mean anything negative, about Pat being on the LIV Tour, they will be blocked.” Ashley Perez said in the Instagram Live video.
“Remove me from your page and I won’t miss you.”
Perez, who reportedly received around AU$14.1 million to join the LIV Tour, is now banned from the PGA Tour. He has earned around AU$39 million during his sporting career, while the current controversial tournament’s winner’s prize money is $5.6 million.
She added: “Exactly 200, maybe even 300 people. And you will never be there again. Regardless, I love you all, I appreciate you all until you say the same shit that I don’t like. I don’t want it, I don’t need it, I won’t accept it, I will never allow it in my world.
“So if you feel the need to say something, just delete me from your page. I won’t miss you. This new tour will be emblematic.
