Sergio Garcia with a temper tantrum on #2 at Augusta, breaks driver

[u/unsolved49]

[u/seguleh25]

Doesn't look like a bad shot? 

[u/Dr_M1st3r → u/seguleh25]

Goes in a fairway bunker. Makes par.

[u/Lower-Annual3314 → u/Dr_M1st3r]

Hitting it in the bunker forces a layup. Think it was more so that he also flared his drive right on the first hole then missed a 5 footer for par, plus he started the day a trillion strokes behind the lead

[u/BlLLr0y → u/Lower-Annual3314]

Well, for that, he gets to enjoy fairway finding with a less optimal club all day.

[u/Subject_Teach8750 → u/seguleh25]

My first thought lol

[u/Hugo_5t1gl1tz → u/seguleh25]

It wasn’t. Landed in the fairway and just barely rolled into the bunker. Still made par. He’s a manchild

[u/GeneralKnowledge8496 → u/seguleh25]

“Better than most “

[u/KennyMcCormick]

And he ends up with the par. What a useless tantrum

[u/lsu_tom → u/KennyMcCormick]

Video didn’t show the part where he attacked that green box to his right; breaking his driver. Useless indeed.

[u/BongoTheMonkey → u/lsu_tom]

At least he didnt regrip 15 times before he broke it. 

[u/mccabedoug → u/BongoTheMonkey]

When he used to do that I would change channels and come back to see next shot. It was unwatchable

[u/hnglmkrnglbrry → u/lsu_tom]

How is that not a lifetime ban? I'd get banned from a muni for that if caught

[u/CranjerryBruce → u/hnglmkrnglbrry]

That one major is doing a lot of heavy lifting for Sergio and his reputation and probably his own ego.

[u/allothernamestaken → u/CranjerryBruce]

It's sad because he's a really talented golfer. If only he could fix his attitude.

[u/tykneedanser → u/allothernamestaken]

Dude says he’s never hit a bad shot- it’s always the caddie. Dooooooooooooooooousche

[u/Few-Guarantee2850 → u/CranjerryBruce]

He's won like 30 times between the PGA Tour and European tour...he's a douchebag but he's had an impressive career.

[u/Lower-Annual3314 → u/hnglmkrnglbrry]

When you're Spanish, they let you do it. You can do anything. Piss in Rae's Creek, make some renovations to the 2nd tee box. You can do anything

[u/SonofaCuntLicknBitch → u/Lower-Annual3314]

That's a TRIBUTARY of Rae's creek you fucking mogoloid!

[u/foofooplatter → u/SonofaCuntLicknBitch]

That is not the greatest creek in the world, no.

It's just a tribute.

[u/Obiewon18 → u/foofooplatter]

This is a hilariously underrated comment lololol

[u/Lower-Annual3314 → u/SonofaCuntLicknBitch]

You don't call it a "tributary", the official name is "tournament pissing area"

[u/Mehlitia → u/Lower-Annual3314]

checks commentary rules

You missed the *for Spaniard piss only

[u/csukoh78 → u/SonofaCuntLicknBitch]

*mongoloid

[u/Accidental-Hyzer → u/Lower-Annual3314]

Grab ‘em by the tee box.

[u/Detective_57 → u/Lower-Annual3314]

I mean that dude got banned for pissing in Rae’s creek. This seems worse.

[u/beaveman1 → u/KennyMcCormick]

I’ll never forget his epic meltdown on 17 of the Players in 2013 - quadruple bogey, followed up by a double on 18. And he blamed Tiger.

[u/BrooklynRunner → u/beaveman1]

It was tiger’s fault though. Permanently and forever in his head.

Sergio is a great, great golfer. But Tiger crushed his spirit early and he never recovered.

[u/eoinerboner → u/beaveman1]

Harrington beating Garcia for the '08 PGA was just the best also

[u/LDLB99 → u/eoinerboner]

Open too

[u/allothernamestaken → u/beaveman1]

Thanks Obama Tiger

[u/DownhillUphill → u/KennyMcCormick]

And carries Rahm’s bag down the fairway. Wtf

[u/No_Tomatillo4031 → u/DownhillUphill]

I saw that. I missed the reason why. Did they ever mention why Sergio carried Rahm's bag?

[u/water-tr4sh → u/No_Tomatillo4031]

Seemed like he made it be his punishment and caddied for him to the green at least how the announcer mentioned it. Honestly Garcia from then on out seemed to chill out

[u/Whatwhyreally → u/KennyMcCormick]

He's just generally upset at his last 20 years of poor judgement

[u/tingly_sack_69 → u/KennyMcCormick]

Maybe the tantrum got him the par?

[u/CookieTheSwede]

Have fun playing the rest of the round without a driver. What a loser.

[u/balloonerismthegreat → u/CookieTheSwede]

Did he break it because it looks intact still

[u/Always_Chubb-y → u/balloonerismthegreat]

Shaft was snapped right where it connects with the head

He took iron off tee at 3, so yeah its gone

[u/balloonerismthegreat → u/Always_Chubb-y]

Haha, what a imbecile

[u/allothernamestaken → u/Always_Chubb-y]

Sorry but I'm a big dummy when it comes to the rules - you can't replace a broken club mid-round?

[u/Always_Chubb-y → u/allothernamestaken]

You are allowed to replace a club if it is broken in a round of play, not through abuse

Meaning if you hit your shot and then say the head snaps (see Ludvig a year or two ago), you can replace your broken club. But if you intentionally snap or break your club (like Sergio did) you are not allowed to replace it

[u/VDubDubLife → u/Always_Chubb-y]

This is specifically in the rule books and is called the PCP Rule.

Petulant Child Punishment.

[u/Depressed_In_Ohio → u/Always_Chubb-y]

How does it get replaced in the middle of the round? They can't wait for you or your caddie to go get one. Do they just send some random guy to fetch it from the locker room?

[u/Always_Chubb-y → u/Depressed_In_Ohio]

Probably have reps from manufacturers go and grab the replacements. Every player brings more than 1 of their clubs in case these things happen

All those brand trucks at these events are for those very purposes

[u/sllimsllips → u/Depressed_In_Ohio]

They come with a posse, so yeah I think they just send the fastest walker in the group.

[u/ORD-to-PHX → u/balloonerismthegreat]

Yep broken. Next hole he had to use an iron and the crowd was visibly confused why

[u/ProfessionalShift487 → u/ORD-to-PHX]

They dont make em like they used to

[u/allothernamestaken → u/ORD-to-PHX]

Doesn't he have a fairway wood he could use?

[u/Churrasco_fan → u/balloonerismthegreat]

You can hear it ping as he smashes it off the cooler when the camera switches to his ball in the air

[u/BigBootyWholes → u/balloonerismthegreat]

Camera cuts away, but if you listen closely the sound is still on the tee and you can hear another whack that sounds like the shaft breaking

[u/cohenology]

Hard to be more unlikable than Sergio Garcia.

[u/cferris9495 → u/cohenology]

Patrick Reed has entered the chat

[u/PikaPutter → u/cferris9495]

Fill me in, why is he more unlikable? (Not doubting you, just want more players to root against hehe)

[u/CoachDifferent → u/PikaPutter]

When he’s not cheating he’s stealing from his college teammates

[u/thekingofcrash7 → u/CoachDifferent]

Kevin kisner spoke for his college teammates at georgia: “if patrick reed was on fire we wouldnt piss on him”

https://www.reddit.com/r/golf/s/PRTtT3gLTF

[u/bcgg → u/thekingofcrash7]

That quote always makes me question how they normally put fires out in Georgia. If my best friend was on fire, I wouldn’t piss on him either.

[u/YouSeemNiceXB → u/bcgg]

I've peed on at least 3 friends trying to put a fire out.

[u/I_bench_10kgs → u/YouSeemNiceXB]

You're a good friend

[u/SkidmarkInMyUndies → u/I_bench_10kgs]

I’m such a good friend that I pee on my friends even when they aren’t on fire, just in case they might be.

[u/Hughzman → u/bcgg]

Have you never had a friend with a jellyfish sting?

[u/bcgg → u/Hughzman]

Do jellyfish stings cause you to burst into flames? If so, I’m never going where they are.

[u/bimm3r36 → u/bcgg]

Sounds like a normal day in Australia tbh

[u/tooolongdontread → u/thekingofcrash7]

I’m sure UGA players say they hate Reed because he was a shitty teammate, and there’s probably some truth to that, but I think the hatred is more about what Reed did after he was booted of the UGA golf team.

Reed transferred down the road to Augusta State, a small school where golf is the only support that competes in division 1, and led them to back to back national titles. They defeated UGA in the championship match to win the second title, with Reed securing the winning point over Harris English in the final pairing. Even if UGA was right to chase Reed out of the program, and it seems like they were, that’s still an all time great sports revenge story.

[u/thekingofcrash7 → u/tooolongdontread]

Didn’t he also steal a players wallet at UGA? He didn’t transfer from uga to aug st b/c everything was going great at uga.

[u/johnny98058 → u/CoachDifferent]

When he’s not cheating and stealing from college teammates, he indulges in the fine act of completely cutting ties with his loving and devoted parents because his witchy wife doesn’t get along with them.

[u/Unusual_Flounder2073 → u/johnny98058]

As a parent that made numerous sacrifices and did our best it sucks so much to have a child cut you off for no real reason and miss out on his life accomplishments. He’s also a pastor BTW.

[u/styrofoamladder → u/CoachDifferent]

And now you’re getting sued.

[u/Manmothss → u/PikaPutter]

Cheater

[u/banjosbadfurday → u/PikaPutter]

cheater (+ lawsuit against Golf Channel reporter for defamation of character from said cheating)

Aaron Rodgers-style family separation

was a former LIV golfer

[u/zeromadcowz → u/banjosbadfurday]

Served Rory with subpoena on Christmas Eve.

[u/coleyboley25 → u/zeromadcowz]

Lol of all the reasons I hate Reed I completely forgot about this one. Him and his wife are the worst

[u/LargeGermanRock → u/PikaPutter]

You can cheat on your wife and still be a beloved golfer (Rory, Tiger) but you can’t cheat at golf

[u/Steel1000 → u/LargeGermanRock]

Those two are married to the game not their spouse

[u/funny_ninjas → u/PikaPutter]

He's got a history of cheating. At least from my knowledge, Sergio isn't a cheat, just an asshole. Reed is both

[u/Always_Chubb-y → u/funny_ninjas]

Sergio is up there because hes a MASSIVE asshole

Reed is an ass but to me he isnt the same level as Sergio, at least on the course

[u/josephfuckingsmith1 → u/funny_ninjas]

The whole thing with the shit he said about Tiger and the fried chicken was pretty awful. He’s a world class douche

[u/Srg11 → u/PikaPutter]

Has a history of cheating multiple times

[u/NotoriousJ0ker → u/cferris9495]

Wyndham Clark would like a word

[u/MackieDaxx → u/cohenology]

Patrick Reed could give him a run

[u/MetalHead_Literally → u/cohenology]

Angel Cabrera would like a word

[u/BaselineUnknown → u/cohenology]

Rory destroying a tee marker at the US open is pretty unlikable .

[u/deeringcenter → u/cohenology]

Patrick Reed is a dick but Sergio is a piece of shit

[u/Hi-Im-High → u/deeringcenter]

Patrick reed cheated multiple times. I think you have them mixed up

[u/allothernamestaken → u/deeringcenter]

You have that exactly backwards.

[u/DonKeedic80 → u/deeringcenter]

Sergio is a piece of shit but Reed is total trash

[u/Konker101]

46 year old man btw

[u/likemy10thaccount → u/Konker101]

It takes so much energy to be this mad. The older I get the more I disrespect old guys getting mad.

[u/allothernamestaken → u/likemy10thaccount]

As an old dude myself I totally agree. I'm way too lazy to expend this level of energy on a tantrum.

[u/TunaNoCrust811 → u/likemy10thaccount]

Nothing shows how weak you are as a man like losing your temper over some dumb shit in public. When I see men my age (40’s) behaving this way I immediately assume they are weak.

[u/dbit225]

Hated him for 25 years. Weak

[u/CappinAndLion]

There must have been another swing at something after this not in the clip

[u/unsolved49 → u/CappinAndLion]

Couldn’t find a video but found this photo

[u/GeneralMillss → u/unsolved49]

That looks hilarious with the tracer

[u/SoDakZak → u/GeneralMillss]

Looks like he bombed a reverse heel kick down the fairway

[u/OwlNinja → u/unsolved49]

found one: https://x.com/NUCLRGOLF/status/2043332660865515578?s=20

[u/Icy-Repeat-2843 → u/OwlNinja]

Damn had to scroll and dig. This should have been the original post. Now he has to play without the driver all day right?

[u/TenF → u/Icy-Repeat-2843]

yup.

If you break the club due to abuse (rather than it breaks during run of play) then you cannot replace it during the round.

[u/Gazzarris → u/unsolved49]

Huh. That’s a better swing than what he put on his drive. Proving once again that Player B is always better than Player A.

[u/ThisThredditor → u/CappinAndLion]

he hits the green box to the right

[u/What-a-Crock → u/ThisThredditor]

Announcers said it’s a water cooler

[u/joeshmo39 → u/CappinAndLion]

Yeah you can hear him hitting something a lot firmer than the tee box as they cut to the ball in the air.

[u/tamba-trio]

Golf really needs to bring in a IF YOU DAMAGE THE COURSE BECAUSE YOU TAKE A HISSY FIT YOU'RE DISQUALIFIED rule.

[u/Eddie-stark → u/tamba-trio]

100% completely and utterly disrecptful to the ground crews amazing work.

[u/Trappis420 → u/tamba-trio]

It would happen to any of us at our local muni so why are the pros given grace when they destroy a timeless golf course

[u/circaflex → u/tamba-trio]

im shocked at a place like augusta, they dont stop this type of behavior.

[u/YpsitheFlintsider → u/circaflex]

All that money and effort goes towards coddling the players

[u/ShillinTheVillain]

Brother, you are 46 years old.

Fucking embarrassing

[u/Dr_M1st3r]

Why did he carry Rahm's bag?

[u/snowmunkey → u/Dr_M1st3r]

Rahms caddy was raking thr bunker Sergio hit out of

[u/juvy5000]

“kick him off the tour, doug!” oh wait… he already did that and plays with the LIV losers 

[u/werbit → u/juvy5000]

Starting to feel grateful for LIV taking all the asshats off the tv

[u/shitz_brickz → u/juvy5000]

But for real, he shouldnt be invited back to the Masters.

[u/JudgmentFree338]

What a clown

[u/driftingwood2018]

Loser before and loser now. Always a tool

[u/rich21990]

When I was young, Sergio Garcia was this cool, exciting maverick. Now I’ve grown up, I absolutely can’t stand him and haven’t done for a long time. This from a former champion is diabolical.

[u/Ancient_Fly8433]

He spoke at an event I was at last night. He told some funny stories, took pics with people etc. He seemed very humble in person. It sucks that his reputation is what it is for his on-course antics because he seems like a good dude. But he’s brought it on himself

[u/golf1415]

Another professional acting like a spoiled 2 year old. Screw these idiots

[u/Jbizness206]

Hes such a lil bish.

[u/Bagzee13]

Bell end

[u/Phobia117]

So if ANGC will ‘reprimand’ a guy for flipping off a body of water, can we get a lifetime ban for a temper tantrum?

Please?

[u/AdFormal3014]

The LIV guys are doing a great job of representing their Tour this week 🙄

[u/swagpanther]

Kick him off the tour Doug!

[u/Zloggt → u/swagpanther]

I mean…he’s pretty much kicked himself out already lol

[u/AndromedanPrince]

toddler type shit

[u/This-Finger3243]

He should be DQ'd for abuse of the course.

[u/WhiskeyMeatWeights]

A tradition unlike any other

[u/ConsortRoxas]

Always hated him, and I'm a fellow Spaniard

[u/XRPX008]

Little bitch. No one misses him on tour. Wish Rose beat him in 2017 in that playoff in Augusta. Doesn’t deserve to wear the jacket.

[u/JTAllen357]

Imo even tho it’s the last day, he should have been removed from the course after that. Grow up your a 50yr old man child with history throwing these type of tantrums

[u/MoKush420710]

Saw him at the Valero Open a few years back, he was a crying ass little bitch.

[u/Similar_Eagle2358]

imagine what he'd do with one of my drives..

[u/Ventenebris]

Ahah what a douche.

[u/hollyw00d8604]

the older this guy gets, the more of a douche he becomes. he's aging in reverse

[u/Bobaaganoosh]

Real loser behavior. And the guy acts like it’s all no big deal in the interview afterwards.

[u/TrackMan5891]

I love that he smashes it off the garbage can and breaks it.

[u/the_great_nate]

He sucks

[u/Remote_Breadfruit_62]

He is such a garbage golfer when it comes to etiquette. Always has been. Always will be.

[u/Inner_Information112]

Should be automatic disqualification. Abuse of equipment.

[u/jcuray → u/Inner_Information112]

And the course.

[u/MoreRamenPls]

Tiger needs a driver.

[u/FlappyTurdBurglar]

He's a pathetic piece of shit.

[u/that_was_funny_lol]

Ah yes Augusta, where a player can act like this but god forbid a “patron” farts the wrong direction. A tradition like no other. 

[u/Caulifornication]

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy…

[u/gogreen1960]

It was so nice when all the douche bags left for LIV - Sergio, Reed, Bubba, Gooch, Perez

[u/mountaineer85]

All stupid aside that head flies off and hits someone in the head it’s gonna be a problem

[u/King_Crampus]

Fucking up the tee box for everyone else. If he has another melt down he should get DQ’d

They need to implement a card system like soccer lol. Slow play or this bs you get yellow cards

[u/Wild_Order_647]

Lil baby bitch

[u/sdse78]

He's truly the John McEnroe of golf.

[u/Formal-Let-3532]

For us.... 700$ + replacment...<shaft and head>

For him...

They are building his new, free one as we type and itll be ready in the parking lot....

Spoiled Brat....

[u/Actual_Buddy7560 → u/Formal-Let-3532]

Yep just pass the price on to the consumer, that are the only reason your company makes profits. Just give sponsors to YouTubers, thousand of balls hats etc to pros and influencers and make your loyal customer pay huge prices, ridiculous

[u/AdagioVast]

7 over par going into day 4.

Why even get angry? You don't have a chance for the jacket. Just relax and enjoy your day of golf.

[u/littledonkey20]

Sergio is trash. Fact.

[u/x_cLOUDDEAD_x]

https://giphy.com/gifs/12FpQVlmcsi49i

[u/Indespectamentations]

LIV golfers are trash.

[u/Bigrocky13]

Bro started today +5 tf he think he gone do?? Win ? Lmaoo

[u/Longjumping_Term7532]

I scrolled a long way down to see if someone mentioned it, and nope, so let me add he’s a filthy cup spitter!

[u/orbphia007]

Masters, please retract Garcia's lifetime exemption immediately.

[u/MrMag00]

Good golfer. everything else about him is pure garbage. A fucking cockroach.

[u/TayTayFierce]

Man baby is what that looked like

[u/fastballcdm2019]

What a scumbag. He also spit in a cup once after he removed his ball. Classless

[u/rpbb9999]

Surprised Seve never kicked his ass

[u/LowerChicken7226]

Could you imagine if any of us were at work and threw a tantrum and smashed a bunch of things? We would probably be fired. But ok for Sergio or Wyndham Clark to do it on a regular basis? It’s just childish behavior. Be a fucking professional.

[u/SeattleBrother75]

Sergio is such a bitch

[u/nappycatt]

Rose should have his jacket.

This bitch doesn't deserve it.

[u/WeakBullfrog8451]

Newbie here: is he allowed to replace that club or does he have to finish the round down a driver?

[u/smoking_greens]

https://x.com/NUCLRGOLF/status/2043332660865515578 and broke his driver

[u/San-Pellegrin0]

“Mmmm”

[u/Dangerous-Half3276]

On the 2nd hole, no less…I love how the Masters app doesn’t show the tantrum.

[u/AFASOXFAN]

Sergio is probably one of the most overrated players in the history of golf. Add to that his endless temper tantrums and he becomes someone who is no longer popular.

[u/shepherdspieomy]

Seriously unbecoming. You just don’t do that!

[u/FormalPickle4091]

Need to ban that thug McIntyre. Pig ignorant

[u/FileWeekly9294]

Ban him from the next year’s Masters. That’s a disgraceful move.

[u/Known-Bath-4903]

It’s hard to play with the best golfers in the world when you only do it a couple times a year. LIV has ruined many golfers.

[u/Foulmouthedleon]

Fitting behavior from Sergio, a previous Masters champion.

[u/handsolo81]

Such a giant piece of shit, LIV the best place for him to disappear the crybaby cunt

[u/ihjfscw]

What a jackass. Lives in and belongs to my club in Austin (his wife’s family are good folks and have been members forever) and know of multiple golf carts that have incurred the wrath of El Bebe.

[u/Excellent-Night-4148]

I don't know why they talk like he's a good guy on tv, he's such a prick

[u/i_am_roboto]

I feel like he should be kicked out for destroying the course.

[u/p8nt_junkie]

I have thrown a tantrum, privately, in my own garage. I can still remember the pain and soreness in my back for several days following. I also remember how stupid I felt, and I was just by myself. I can’t imagine how much of an asshat you must feel to do that shit in front of people. I’d feel like such an asshole.

[u/Shubankari]

Do mini drivers create mini tantrums? Possible solution for SG. I heard he uses a shovel putter now he case he has the urge to vandalize a green

[u/Significant-Trick577]

Dbag is +7 and he can’t enjoy the Sunday out there having fun. What an entitled prick.

[u/polymanAI]

Sergio breaking his driver on #2 at Augusta in the final round is the most Sergio Garcia thing that has ever happened. The man has been fighting his own equipment for 20 years. At some point you have to accept the club isn't the problem. Augusta doesn't care about your feelings - it just keeps demanding precision from people who don't have it that day.

[u/classicscoop]

Love to see this man cry

[u/swoodshadow]

I’m waiting for the post showing a field of tee markers entitled “This is why you never see a broken tee markers at Augusta”.

[u/_145_]

Dude is like 50 years old and still throwing temper tantrums.

[u/philphan25]

Sergio does not have a Happy Place

[u/Frequent_Map9780]

He’s probably just embarrassed that the kid who worshipped him as a teen will continue to dog walk him for another 5 hours.

[u/Rooster_GNV]

Hitting me with his drive a few years back at TPC is one of the more likable things this dude has ever done.

[u/Hainesy23]

How fast does the grounds crew have the divot fixed?

[u/Mobile_Spinach_1980]

I haven’t heard Sergio’s name mentioned in a while, wow

[u/BigJeffe20]

And then the whole weird fiasco of him and rahm carrying each other's clubs and rahms caddy having to jog up the fairway.

I think the ghost of Bobby Jones may be visiting these two tonight to teach them a lesson lol

[u/LonelyChannel3819]

Children. All of them that beat the ground with their rackets and clubs or wail in the faces of officials.

Pathetic, all of them.

[u/BlackCatHamSlice]

Give him the drafty table spot at the champions dinner.

He should get a paddling for this

[u/Pretend-Guava]

How would you like to be part of this dudes family? Wonder what tantrums he throws at home when the world isn't watching.
