I'm glad I've never heard of anyone mentioned so far. Maybe that's why they have to throw a tantrum and try for more attention?

When Jack was 11, his father had an ankle injury and was advised to walk as therapy, so he started golfing again after having given up the game. He brought his son with him, and a career was born. That summer, his father observed Jack with his friends throwing clubs after a bad shot. He told young Jack that if he ever saw him throw a club, he'd never play golf again.

But funny to mention anger being reserved for the locker room. Too bad Wyndam Clark didn't wait until he had left the clubhouse.

Wyndam Clark isn't worth mentioning in my eyes and at least he had his childish tantrum out of the view of many. When you're on the court, field or course with TV exposure, millions are usually watching. Good on Jack's Dad, what a fine example of a man.

If you haven't heard of Scottie Scheffler, you don't follow professional golf, right?

All anyone needs to do for a first hand account on what it's like for " Sports " people to feel really, really " Special " ?

Take a wander over to " Lake Miona " Pickleball Courts on any weekday morning and get an Eye Opener First Hand Look See on how Special Sports People are Really Like, those Pickleball Players are absolutely in Love with themselves.:bowdown:

Burnsed & Rohan usually on any given weekend on certain courts are similar.

The difference ??? Once they leave the Pickleball Courts they are .....?????barf

My tantrum expletive is “Fiddlee-Dee”, Really!

Narcissistic Prima Donnas behaving badly. What else is new?

It's a job that makes them millions. For millions I'd rip your throat out in competition

How many folks commenting on this thread, have made their living playing a professional sport and followed around for hours by TV Cameras, while performing their competitive job?


.... that's what I thought.

Lack of severe punishment
 

Nail on the head.......

Hockey is a joke.......fighting allowed, why not football or basketball............watched a bruins game and with 30 seconds left a fight started...it's like fake time wrestling...Russians play hockey, Americans play brawl to entertain

Referees need to start pulling players off the field or court for bad actions, give them a 5 minute time out and then toss them for a repeat performance..........

Golf is the ultimate pressure cooker..........at least fights don't breakout
true emotion does but with a lid on it.......thankfully

How many talk about investments and some firm makes all the decisions? That’s what I thought :024:

There is a huge difference between an individual sport, like golf or tennis, and a team sport, like football or baseball. I prefer to watch an individual sport because of the increased pressure on the players. In golf, you don't have a contract, so you must perform or not get paid.

Golf, darts, bowling, chest, ect… all on Individuals, nobody to blame but themselves if they can’t preform.

Please tell me why all these emotional displays are ok, except for Scottie Scheffler's.

If one can't tell the difference between celebrating a victory or acting like a spoiled brat when things don't go their way, I can't help.
