PAIGE SPIRANAC TAKES DIM VIEW OF PGA TOUR PLAYER’S OUTBURST

Paige Spiranac says she’s a fan of the golfer but ‘hates’ his take of the boozy fans at the 2024 Waste Management Phoenix Open.

Paige Spiranac says she’s a fan of Zach Johnson but ‘hated his take’ after the 2023 U.S. Ryder Cup captain complained about the rowdy fans at the Waste Management Phoenix Open.

The poor conduct of certain spectators, who seemed to have consumed excessive amounts of alcohol, cast a shadow over the PGA Tour event that took place during the weekend.

There are reports of a woman falling from the grandstand at the famous 16th hole, but it is still uncertain whether alcohol consumption was a factor.

However, numerous videos were circulated on social media showcasing intoxicated fans who had surpassed their limits and then some.

A video depicted a man who appeared to be asleep unintentionally urinating on himself. Another video featured a man being lifted by his friend.

One person was also arrested after jumping over the ropes and diving into the greenside bunker at the aforementioned 16th.

Of course, the players were also subjected to some chirps from the galleries.

Johnson was reportedly told he should have taken LIV Golf’s Talor Gooch to the Ryder Cup last September which prompted the American to confront the person (s) responsible for the comment.

“Don’t ‘sir’ me”, he blasted before walking off.

Later, Billy Horschel became the second player to take matters into his own hands.

According to Johnson, the 2024 edition of the tournament might be the last time we see him at the Phoenix Open.

Johnson told a reporter the line has always been crossed at TPC Scottsdale.

“This tournament has been inappropriate or crossed the line ever since I’ve been on Tour and this is my 21st year,” he said.

It begged the question, why does the golfer still show up if it’s that bad.

“Big ZJ fan but personally hate this take,” Paige wrote on X.

“Don’t play it then. It’s been a fantastic tournament for the growth of the game over the years.”

Tournament organizers have reached their limit, despite the possibility of arguing that this disruptive behavior occurs only once annually.

Chance Cozby, the executive director of Thunderbirds, stated that in 2025, there will be a complete overhaul of the tournament.

Cozby expressed to Golf Channel that they are displeased with the events that occurred on Saturday.

The incident that occurred on Saturday is not favored by the players. The fans are also displeased with the events that took place on Saturday. As a result, we are open to considering any possible actions or decisions.

He further stated that they will be implementing modifications and there will be no breaks as they have a whole year to rectify the situation.
