Dottie Pepper and Ian Poulter have had enough of social media trolls.
Both were criticized on social media this week. Poulter was blasted after showing how he marks his practice golf balls, which came across as elitist, because Titleist Pro V1's aren't cheap, while Pepper was crushed for making a blunder Sunday while interviewing Kevin Kisner and Scott Brown during a weather delay.
"If you take offense to my post, then you are probably following the wrong person," Poulter said in a statement on Twitter.

Pepper responded by shutting down her account, and told SB Nation: "It is suspended by my own doing; can stay in that status for a year."
