I have to admire the patience shown by all Professionals on the USPGA Tour having to put up with the ridiculous chanting by the spectators.

Obviously it is only a vast minority but people shouting out 'Get in the Hole' on a par 4 & par 5 teeing box is taking it just too far. When will the authorities start issuing stern warnings to these idiots and enforce evictions for serial offenders. Surely the golfing purists must be so annoyed by these actions.

Any views ?

hahahaha i agree i dont know why people scream get in the hole unless it's an actual reachable par 4. but yea i hear that alot and i just think wow but i mean everyone is allowed to have fun they paid for the ticket so nothing you can do

i think the crowds are great. There a lot more exciting than the european tour crowds

All of this behavior is not disruptive in any way and it just goes to show how much popularity this great sport is getting. We should be happy in my opinion.

Yelling like that should be acceptable, as long as it's done after the golfers play their shot, because it doesn't bother the other golfers, and it makes everything exciting, and fun.

I personally think it's funny, and find that some people are a little too uptight when it comes to things being shouted from the gallery...loosen up people, what gets more people into the game is stuff like that.

I love it. It makes me laugh everytime I hear it. European crowds are very boring compared to ours... :)

yea it makes me laugh too but the get in the hole thing is annoying when they say it all the time. during the u.s. open someone yelled GET SOME!!!! after phil hit his tee shot i thought that was funny as ever. couldn't agree with you more when you say european tour is boring because i'm so close to falling asleep when i watch the european tour and the announcer doesn't help that at all

The most hilarious one that I saw during the U.S open was when tiger hit a shot, and I heard some guy shout "RICKY WHO?"

Last year at the US Open, someone brought the chant "ONE TIME!" I thought that was pretty funny.

man that makes my day when its all quiet and you hear the crack of the club smacking the ball and some guy in the crowd yells..."get in the hole"....man i love it

agreed ^^^^. the crowds are changing the game, at the professional level at least.

As long as the galleries don't interfere with thecompetition, I guess they have a right to be a little raucous. But I have found that the lower the golf skill level of the fan, the louder he is.

I remember after tiger hit a drive on the 1st round at the memorial tournament and it was quitet for a moment then someone said "I like your video game", and everyone started laughing.

i remember that as well. i laughed hysterically when it happened
