Nothing but white trash out there. They were throwing beer at the players and caddies. Slowed down the event as well. Damn you people. Go back to your shanties.

JFC, have a little fun in your life. You must be a riot at parties. If it is such a bad place to play, I guess that's why 15 of the top 20 players teed it up this week.

I found the addition of your adjective “white” to be unnecessarily racist.

It’s never a good thing to designate, denigrate or segregate people based on the color of their skin.

Yeah - quite the double standard in this day and age.

Thought that to be the "New American Way" to designate persons in our society?

A lot of sleeveless shirts out there today. I just call it how it is.

While I wish they didn’t throw beer/cans…I love the atmosphere on that par 3. The company that builds the “arena” around that hole was a customer of mine. It really is an amazing temporary arena. I’d love if people would cheer me on while teeing off. Usually I just have my buddies looking in the woods for my ball.

May not be a traditional golf crowd, but if that was the fans’ reaction to an ace that I had just hit, I‘d be on cloud nine. I’m sure it’s something that Sam Ryder will never forget. Maybe not appropriate for the Masters or another major tourney but I thought this was pretty fun.

Back when I golfed the most nerve-racking time was the first tee with a bunch of people standing around waiting for their groups turn. The last thing you wanted to do was hit a worm burner.

Actually that section are the people who ran in at 6am. The rest are rich hoidy toidy. Since it costs thousands for those seats and suites. Reminds me of yankee stadium in right field right there. Fun crowd: my wife said she has never seen more Gucci and Louis vatton bags as well as dresses and high heels walking In there and walking around golf course in her life!!!

Here's a question I have....all the bleachers/stands, particularly around #16. Are those stands permanent or are they removed after the tournament ends? Seems like a ton of work if they take them out...

Spend my winters here in Phoenix,play lots of golf.Most folks don't look like they came from the hills of West Virginia. Lots of young good looking guys and girls. This is the opposite of the Masters. Arguably the most fun PGA event of the year.

It is what it is, and it’s the environment that this tournament has embraced…it’s also good for getting non-golf fans involved in golf. However, I much prefer the atmosphere in Augusta over the atmosphere this week.

More stadiums there then I have ever seen. 17 and 18 have huge stands as well and have to be over 10k each.

Should be another great finish. I like the drivable 17th. Last 4 holes are made for the fans, much like Sawgrass.
