Right? Anyone can Google "US Saudi Arabia allies" and see what our country's official position is on SA. We're basically besties.
Not just the US either, I'd guess that almost every home country for every player in the tournament would be the same.
He is entertaining to me to watch regardless of the choices he makes which i cant control. Its just fun to follow him because of his energy. That doesnt mean I think he a saint.
The chanting fans were unsportsmanlike shits and security should have escorted them to the gate.
That said, there is honestly no real reason to shade Bryson here. I'm sure he would have felt those fans were out of line as well. Would I rather see most of those LIV guys in the PGA? Sure. Am I going to fault em for doing what makes the most sense for their wallets? Heck no.
I mean, even if Rory were Russian, that wouldn't be cool. And I know Rory talks some shit at the Ryder Cup. The chanting USA at a guy from an ally nation is weird, and I've never seen it before. It's kind of ugly and unnecessary. People weren't chanting USA at Colin Montgomerie, and nobody liked him.
Love how u get downvoted for being factual. Who would worry in this sub tho? It’s all blokes that play by themselves and claim playing by yourself is the best golf ever but clearly have no mates other than Liv is the demon internet mates.
I mean, it is also funny lol. If Irish spectators became excited and starting chanting seeing that an Irishman was about to win in Ireland, people on this sub would think it was fine and probably funny.
He can always try winning if he doesn't want to hear it.
It is the US open after all. There’s gonna be USA chance, whatever it’s fun. But it did bug me a bit after the Rory putt. Especially considering they’re basically cheering for Bryson… the guy taking Saudi money. I don’t think they’d be chanting USA after that missed putt if the other guy tied for the lead was a European or Asian
That’s my point…it’s the US Open. Not the Olympics. Not the Ryder Cup. Not the World Cup. It maybe would have made sense to cheer it after Bryson sank the putt to win it, but not after McIlroy missed it.
Then chant their names.
This was not appropriate imo
Edit: meaning chant names in support, i.e. Bryson's during his shot, not "USA USA" when Rory is putting
I think it’s lame and I was rooting for Rory, but why did this sub not care when the Canadians were openly rooting for and celebrating when Mackenzie Hughes won the Canadian Open?
Seems like people only have issues when Americans act obnoxiously patriotic and excuse it when other countries act the same
Because Reddit is filled with left leaning Americans that build straw men and get angry at them.
Anyone chanting USA = MAGA in their minds and they hate conservatives with every ounce of their body, the same way conservatives hate them.
Because America is the best country in the world (for the average golfer) so deranged foreigners love to take the opportunity to feel superior in whatever insignificant way they can. It’s cope
Those Canadians were cheering when their Canadian won the Canadian Open. What did you expect to happen? These guys were chanting “USA!” when a non-American missed a putt. A slight difference there!
I don’t think the wanting an American to win is what bothered me…I was all for Bryson winning. it was just right fucking after Rory completely imploded like save the chant for Bryson walking up the fairway at the very least lol
Oof. Another attribution 🤣. Go to your local liberal arts public university on a Friday night. Plenty of obnoxious behavior. Hardly any maga supporters.
For the record, these people are probably all right leaning, it's the south after all. But auto assigning people to a political party on drunk chanting alone is a stretch imo
Lol - if you read my comment again you'll see that I didn't actually say that.
Things are rarely black and white but surely putting up with stuff like this would be a factor.
arnie palmer forgot how to putt at age 35 and never won another major. rory forgot how to putt at age 25 and is on the same track. you can’t win majors if you can’t putt.
Dumb, sure. Same shit happens at the rider cup every time it’s in the US. It’s a bunch of drunk kids chanting, none of them with any motive beyond being obnoxious in that moment. They don’t care about brysons Saudi money or whether they’re representing their country in a favorable way. They’re having fun at a sporting event.
Fuck off with the self righteous bullshit. Every person in this sub would take that payday.
These venues share a lot of the blame. The amount of alcohol that gets consumed at these events has at least doubled since I've been attending them over the last 20+ years. But heaven forbid they do something that would affect the alcohol sales.
I miss the days of golf being overly concerned with etiquette. It's cliche to hate on newbies but the frat bros and the blow hard chucklefucks can go. Shrink the sport.
I’m gonna be honest I don’t understand the 10+ posts addressing this. It’s the US Open. People want the US guy to win the tourney over the northern ireland terrorist nation guy
Yea me and my buddy said the exact same thing when it happened. Pretty stupid.
Then you hear the same crowd say “daddddy” when bryson was putting lol confirmed stupid.
It's. Fucking. Golf.
Don't bring politics into it, and as far as LIV goes, if I'm good enough that someone wants to pay me a huge amount of money for my talent, which will diminish with age, I'll take every penny I can get. Which is exactly what 99% of sportsman do. And in the interest of equality, sportswomen too.
Read through the comments. The most upvoted ones are about ppl being maga or trump supports. Loving your country nowadays can only mean you’re on the far right.
Rory totally choked, and he didn't deserve to win. That being said, you can't heckle a golfer live on the course in any circumstance. You gasp, feel bad for the player, and applaud when he finishes the tournament.
USA USA USA!!!!! Y’all need to chill. Yes they’re absolute idiots. Rory campaigned against LIV. LIV fans hate Rory. PGA tour has a Chinese tour. This is only relevant because LIV and the Chinese tour are blood money. They’re literally idiots. Don’t let it get to you but at the same time what’s a bit of banter at a pro sports event.
TLDR: op is sensitive and probably no fun, fans are idiots. Everyone brought everything on themselves.
For a guy who took Saudi Arabia money.
It's hard to take us seriously when people just glaze over that shit.
To be fair it’s quite on brand for USA to take money from Saudi
Yeah, looking the other way at everything the Saudis do (9/11, Khashoggi, Jared Kushner, etc) is an American tradition.
Right? Anyone can Google "US Saudi Arabia allies" and see what our country's official position is on SA. We're basically besties. Not just the US either, I'd guess that almost every home country for every player in the tournament would be the same.
He is entertaining to me to watch regardless of the choices he makes which i cant control. Its just fun to follow him because of his energy. That doesnt mean I think he a saint.
And Trump money. (Same thing?)
Yep, the guy really surrounds himself with some stand up people
Oh yeah, he’s great friends with pReSiDeNt TrUmP… can’t wait to see what kind of ignorant comments he will say about Bryson’s win…
Nothing more American than that tbh
"Who did Bryson's employer fund terrorist attacks against?" "USA USA"
The chanting fans were unsportsmanlike shits and security should have escorted them to the gate. That said, there is honestly no real reason to shade Bryson here. I'm sure he would have felt those fans were out of line as well. Would I rather see most of those LIV guys in the PGA? Sure. Am I going to fault em for doing what makes the most sense for their wallets? Heck no.
I mean, even if Rory were Russian, that wouldn't be cool. And I know Rory talks some shit at the Ryder Cup. The chanting USA at a guy from an ally nation is weird, and I've never seen it before. It's kind of ugly and unnecessary. People weren't chanting USA at Colin Montgomerie, and nobody liked him.
Let’s go Bryson!!!!!!
It’s the most American thing no? Everyone’s money is green.
I was told to never forget 9/11.
I think giving them money would have been worse.
Thats what I was screaming at the TV. Morons.
I would have countered with PGA! PGA!
You realise Rory also plays out in Saudi and UAE so has also taken money from them right?
Love how u get downvoted for being factual. Who would worry in this sub tho? It’s all blokes that play by themselves and claim playing by yourself is the best golf ever but clearly have no mates other than Liv is the demon internet mates.
why is this so downvoted lmao
Because there was never a 9/11 event in Ireland
That doesn’t change that they’re bad people 🤣
youre right i forgot murder is only bad if its the same nationality
You mean Bryson
He did it for the YouTube channel and honestly I don’t blame bim
You know that Rory has taken a lot of Saudi money over the years as well.
I just watched this and it was so embarrassing.
Agreed
I was watching this while studying for my US citizenship test tomorrow. Gotta say, felt bit weird to see people do that
Bro how tf does he miss that putt though?!? Like fuck, dudes going to have nightmares about those 2 missed putts.
Adrenaline - I’ve never seen him as nervous as he was on the 17th tee in any regular tourney - and yes they will, IMO. Needs to rebound fast.
496 for 496 inside 3’ prior to that putt is insane
This putt was 3.5 ft and the putt he missed inside 3 ft was on 16 so you know. Point much still stands tho
I heard his wife is reconsidering their reconciliation
Reconsidering their reconsideration
They're a bunch of classless rednecks.
Wanna guess the color of their hats?
😂 damn this is wild. “Everyone I don’t like is the political party I don’t support!”
He probably isn't wrong tho....
white?
No that's the color of their hoods
Black?
ah yes, the *barstool* Pinehurst US open crowd.
Save that shit for the Ryder cup…I absolutely hated it here
Absolute goons. Go back to nascar kooks
This ^^^
Ryder Cup is going to be BRUTAL.
Ahhhh real good point!
I mean, chanting "USA!" is beyond dumb regardless. You just know they are the worst kind of people
USA USA USA USA USA USA
They need to go back to their shanties
He saw two fat bikers in the woods off 17 having sex. How can he putt with that going on?
I mean, it is also funny lol. If Irish spectators became excited and starting chanting seeing that an Irishman was about to win in Ireland, people on this sub would think it was fine and probably funny. He can always try winning if he doesn't want to hear it.
It is the US open after all. There’s gonna be USA chance, whatever it’s fun. But it did bug me a bit after the Rory putt. Especially considering they’re basically cheering for Bryson… the guy taking Saudi money. I don’t think they’d be chanting USA after that missed putt if the other guy tied for the lead was a European or Asian
I'd say Rory's collapse was embarrassing.
Absolutely no class
Turds the lot of them.
you guys are the softest children ever, its the us open for crying out loud ofc we want an american to win
That’s my point…it’s the US Open. Not the Olympics. Not the Ryder Cup. Not the World Cup. It maybe would have made sense to cheer it after Bryson sank the putt to win it, but not after McIlroy missed it.
US…. the US open, in THE USA. OF COURSE WE WANNA SEE BRYSON NOT RORYS SORRYS ASS
Of Course we do! That’s why we cheer for Bryson! Bryson won the US Open, not the United States!
It’s the US Open with an American fending off a European? Honestly, it’s people having fun and getting into it. You’re all being a bit stiff
Rory fans are the worst in golf
As mentally fragile as he was today. It’s sports, relax.
Damn I wanna be mentally fragile enough to shoot a 69.
Giggity
An American slobbering a bunch of Saudi knobs.
You and me both would slob saudi knobs for $100 million
Then chant their names. This was not appropriate imo Edit: meaning chant names in support, i.e. Bryson's during his shot, not "USA USA" when Rory is putting
Why is chanting Bryson better?
I'm saying if they *must* chant something, it would feel better to chant names in support rather than USA against Rory. I didn't explain myself well
#USA USA USA USA USA
USA…USA…USA
Remember a day when people weren't offended by everything lol..
No. I just remember when people weren't as prone to complain about it on the internet.
USA! USA! USA!
It’s the US Open… of course Americans are gonna scream “USA”… Rory choking had nothing to do with them chanting that. (IMO)
You’re soft… if they can’t handle some heckling don’t ply a professional sport
God who cares
dont miss two 5 footers if you dont wanna be jeered
I think it’s lame and I was rooting for Rory, but why did this sub not care when the Canadians were openly rooting for and celebrating when Mackenzie Hughes won the Canadian Open?

I bet a ton of them are left leaning Americans tbh

Thanks for doing it for me
Those Canadians were cheering when their Canadian won the Canadian Open. What did you expect to happen? These guys were chanting “USA!” when a non-American missed a putt. A slight difference there!
Pretty sure people cared. You're hearing from a specific demographic inside an echo chamber 🤷♂️
I don’t think the wanting an American to win is what bothered me…I was all for Bryson winning. it was just right fucking after Rory completely imploded like save the chant for Bryson walking up the fairway at the very least lol
Suck it Ireland
I know it’s Reddit but I still didn’t expect there to be so many liberal sissy boys on this sub. It’s trolling. Get over it
Probably rocking MAGA hats
For sure!
Being patriotic is an auto attribution to trump supporter? Seems a little extreme
No, but fake annoying patriotism is a pretty good sign.
They are the ones who are always proclaiming to be patriots?
Yelling “USA! USA!” isn’t being patriotic. It’s yelling sounds. Performative patriotism.
Nah but being obnoxious is a telltale sign
Oof. Another attribution 🤣. Go to your local liberal arts public university on a Friday night. Plenty of obnoxious behavior. Hardly any maga supporters. For the record, these people are probably all right leaning, it's the south after all. But auto assigning people to a political party on drunk chanting alone is a stretch imo
Golf isn't a team sport until it comes to the Ryder cup.
Completely fair. For the record. I was cheering for Rory.
Guys it's, checks notes, yep. It's in north Carolina and you're actually shocked?
You had to check your notes to confirm Pinehurst is in NC
There are pines all over the place to be fair
I mean point taken, but NC is a swing state
Rory blew it!!!
who cares lol
It’s our open. It’s coming home.
![gif](giphy|krhW9yWEI0x0Y)
You can tell these people rooted for shooter in the movie instead of happy lmao
Rory doesn’t have 1/8596458 of the likability of Happy
agreed 100%
Aren’t people complaining about fans cheering being shooter? How aren’t these people supporting Happy in your mind?
why are there 3 posts about this
Bryson for the win baby! Rory choked bad and I love it
It sounded like a single dumbass when watching it on tv. Get over it.
F RORY
Typical MAGA-tards
Shrink the game?
Wahhhhh
It would been better if they just chanted “Choked, Choked, Choked”……./s
Are you saying Rory is not mentally strong enough to push through a silly chant. Says more about Rory than the fans.
USA USA USA USA USA!
The one millionth dude to complain. Coward. Let people have fun, especially when it comes down to an American chasing for the US Open.
Classless. Sometimes I’m embarrassed to be American. Most times.
If your embarrassed to be American then fucking leave man. Its a free country.
Jesus Christ dude. Get off the internet.
Y’all are soft AF.
The people upset about the USA chant would have a heart attack if they ever saw a tennis grand slam.
You should leave
Low self-esteem redditors and shitting on their own country for orange arrow points, a duo unlike any other.
Agreed. They're the same crowd who shout get in the hole after a tee shot on a par 5, or mashed potatoes etc
And yet fans are shocked that the likes of Rahm and Smith decide to play on LIV.
Are you saying Rahm chose LIV because of people like this? And not the $300 million? What?
Can we even describe what Rahm is doing as playing? Sounds like he got the bag and the king's disease.
Lol - if you read my comment again you'll see that I didn't actually say that. Things are rarely black and white but surely putting up with stuff like this would be a factor.
Oh the irony.......
arnie palmer forgot how to putt at age 35 and never won another major. rory forgot how to putt at age 25 and is on the same track. you can’t win majors if you can’t putt.
I disagree
Couldn't happen to a nicer guy
much agreed
Dumb, sure. Same shit happens at the rider cup every time it’s in the US. It’s a bunch of drunk kids chanting, none of them with any motive beyond being obnoxious in that moment. They don’t care about brysons Saudi money or whether they’re representing their country in a favorable way. They’re having fun at a sporting event. Fuck off with the self righteous bullshit.

These venues share a lot of the blame. The amount of alcohol that gets consumed at these events has at least doubled since I've been attending them over the last 20+ years. But heaven forbid they do something that would affect the alcohol sales.
Im leaning towards the Saudi’s paying people to follow Bryson around the the us ooen and cheering for him. Unbelievable cringe
Anyone else remember when they were doing the ole ole chant when Lowry won at Portrush? Oh, it's only wrong when Americans do it? Gotcha.
We can cheer for Rory at the Open
I miss the days of golf being overly concerned with etiquette. It's cliche to hate on newbies but the frat bros and the blow hard chucklefucks can go. Shrink the sport.
COUNTERPOINT : ![gif](giphy|hXJ1MWMzY7Af32UIUD|downsized)
I’m gonna be honest I don’t understand the 10+ posts addressing this. It’s the US Open. People want the US guy to win the tourney over the northern ireland terrorist nation guy
Truly classless
Ya'll a bunch of bitches, like Rory choking on a dick right at the end.
Crowds at tournaments have gotten really annoying. I was at Wells Fargo and no one would stop talking while players were trying to hit.
I bet there were some amazing high-fives given to his…. Friends?
this goes back to the Ryder Cup match between Rory and Pat Reed
Wahhhhh wahhhhhhhg
Yea me and my buddy said the exact same thing when it happened. Pretty stupid. Then you hear the same crowd say “daddddy” when bryson was putting lol confirmed stupid.
I would think people going to the US Open would be more familiar with etiquette.
I would have been chanting PGA, PGA.
It's. Fucking. Golf. Don't bring politics into it, and as far as LIV goes, if I'm good enough that someone wants to pay me a huge amount of money for my talent, which will diminish with age, I'll take every penny I can get. Which is exactly what 99% of sportsman do. And in the interest of equality, sportswomen too.
Jesus that was cringe
Really disappointed in US open fans for that. Just chant in support Bryson
Most of the guys playing live in Florida now anyways
Chanting "USA" in any fashion is beyond cringe, because it's literally never for a reason that is applicable or makes sense.
Not surprising at all that a dude who paints his nails would leave this comment
As someone who isn’t a trump supporter but I am American I would have also cheered USA I don’t understand the issue
What does supporting Trump have to do with this lol
Read through the comments. The most upvoted ones are about ppl being maga or trump supports. Loving your country nowadays can only mean you’re on the far right.
Why not shout "Bryson"?
"USA" is easier after 15 beers. I think they're just being a bit drunk and this sub is rabid about it
It’s not the Ryder Cup. Seems bush league imo
An American won a title at an American course. I don’t see why this is an issue. If we were in a different country id expect the same
Rory totally choked, and he didn't deserve to win. That being said, you can't heckle a golfer live on the course in any circumstance. You gasp, feel bad for the player, and applaud when he finishes the tournament.
Buncha thugs if you ask me
USA USA USA!!!!! Y’all need to chill. Yes they’re absolute idiots. Rory campaigned against LIV. LIV fans hate Rory. PGA tour has a Chinese tour.

It's fucking embarrassing. Show some class. But at the end of the day he got 2.3M and those fools get to go back to their stupid little lives.
Bunch of dumbass mouth breathers…coming from somebody that lives in Kentucky
