Talking about his frustration, the former PGA Tour player slammed the airline in an X post. He penned down a long message, calling himself "an unsatisfied customer."

"Hey @British_Airways any chance you could send my luggage along from London Heathrow to Dublin? Thanks to some AirTags I can see exactly where they are, presumably in your care, and they have been sitting in the same spot for roughly 24 hours, despite several phone calls and emails. I suppose I could wear the same suit all next week, but I’m afraid by midweek, I’d have to sit downwind of my colleagues. Sincerely, An unsatisfied customer," he wrote.

British Airways responded to his post in the comments section and wrote:

"We're sorry your bags are delayed. Can you DM us your WorldTracer reference and contact details, along with a screenshot from the airtags?"

Brandel Chamblee replied to the airline’s message, writing:

"I’ve sent all the necessary/requested info, both yesterday (numerous times) and now today, as well as screenshots where the bags are in terminal 5 and cannot get a reply as to when to expect the bags to be delivered in Dublin."

The golfers are preparing for the 2025 Open Championship at Royal Portrush Golf Club in County Antrim, Northern Ireland. The major will officially start next week, and players are competing at the Genesis Scottish Open in Scotland ahead of that. While many players are enjoying their time in Europe, Brandel Chamblee had an unpleasant experience ahead of the major.


Brandel Chamblee shares his experience playing at Trump Turnberry

"Played at @TrumpTurnberry today, where there hasn’t been an @TheOpen since 2009. It is arguably the best links course in the whole of the UK and inarguably one of the best courses in the world. Why does it seem that Turnberry is not on the Open rota anymore?"

The Open Championship takes place at different venues every year. It was held in Turnberry in 2009, when Stewart Cink registered a win by defeating Tom Watson in a playoff.

Brandel Chamblee played in the Open Championship in his professional golf career before venturing into broadcasting. He made his debut at the major with a T66 finish in 1987 and competed again in 1995 but missed the cut. His last outing at the major was in 2001, where he finished T62, his best result in the tournament.
