Golf can humble even the best players in the world, but this? THIS?!? This is downright humiliating. Spanish golfer Rafael Cabrera-Bello was playing his second round at the South African Open this week, and wasn't playing that well.

Cabrera-Bello opened with an even-par 72, but was, to say the least, struggling mightily in the second round. How bad? He lost all the golf balls he had in his bag, and was disqualified for it. That's right, Rafael basically one-upped the famous Tin Cup moment by losing that final balata, and was put out of his misery early by rule 4-4a.

According to Jason Sobel of ESPN, Cabrera-Bello lost all 11 golf balls he had in his bag, and couldn't use another because the rules don't allow such a thing, so he had to disqualify himself.

How bad were his first 10 holes of the second round? About as ugly as a Barkley six-iron. Cabrera-Bello shot a 46 on the first nine, with a bogey, an eight and a 10 on two par-4s...More

Angelina Jolie is the target of more criticism over her feature directorial debut, a love story set during the Bosnian War.

The actress -- who recently cut short the film's shoot after rumors that it portrayed a relationship between a rapist and his victim sparked protests -- was called "ignorant" on Monday by a group of women who were victims of sexual violence during the 1990s war, the AFP reported.

In a letter to the United Nations refugee agency, for which Jolie is a goodwill ambassador, the Women Victims of War said its members are "deeply concerned about the movie."

"Angelina Jolie's ignorant attitude towards victims says enough about the scenario and gives us the right to continue having doubts about it," the letter read.

After rumors of the rapist love story line surfaced in October, a group of Bosnian War rape victims pressured city officials to withdraw Jolie's filming permit.

The rumors proved to be untrue, and after the country's minister of culture read the script -- about a Bosnian woman who falls in love with a Serb man -- the permit was reinstated. However, Jolie earlier this month cut the shooting schedule from 10 days to three and decided to film some of the scenes originally planned for Bosnia in Hungary instead...More
