Geoff in European Tour

This European Tour announcement is humorous on many levels, starting with the notion that the tournament's website was crashed by "massive volume of traffic" from possible ticket buyers even though no one has been showing up.

Due to a massive volume of traffic, the official website of the Dubai World Championship presented by DP World is experiencing temporary difficulties.
 
Spectators unable to download their season tickets are advised to simply turn up at the Earth course at Jumeirah Golf Estates and can gain free admittance for the remaining two days play. The public car parks are clearly signposted. The event regrets any inconvenience caused and trusts you will enjoy the remainder of The Race to Dubai.
