As of this writing, the picture you see above featuring Wayne Rooney (right) relieving himself on a rock during a round of golf is currently occupying space on Spanish sports site AS.com along with the phrase "The Incontinence of Wayne Rooney." If your fingers betrayed you to the point of clicking on the image, it leads you to an enlarged version along with this caption, which I have helpfully run through Google Translate:
ROONEY incontinence. Some England players were relaxed by playing golf the day after a draw against the United States. During his match, Rooney had a grip and did not hesitate to address his needs on one of the holes of the golf course.
Guys urinate on golf courses all the time -- it's almost a required part of the game -- so I'm not sure why this is such a big deal. Granted, it's not usually done so out in the open and photographed by paperazzi. The more shocking aspect of this photo, however, has to be Rooney's socks. Not your typical golf course attire.
Hopefully once the Spanish team begins its World Cup campaign the nation's press will abandon the documentation of Wayne Rooney's public pee parties in favor of just about anything else imaginable.
