I saw the Rory story and thought I would share my own Patrick Reed story.
First of all, I have never liked this guy. He has one of those faces you just want to punch. The cheating and the stories surrounding him seemed outrageous… or so I thought. I went to a LIV tournament with a friend and was on the putting green collecting autographs. I got to meet DJ, Cam Smith, Phil, and some other pros who were really friendly and down-to-earth. They were joking around while signing.
Then Patrick came out with his caddy. There was a young boy in front of me yelling, “Patrick, Patrick, I’m your biggest fan, please sign my hat!” The kid looked like he was around 7 to 9 years old. Patrick just completely ignored him, and the kid kept trying to get his attention in a nice way. After about 10 minutes, Patrick called his caddy over, whispered something to him, and then the caddy came over to the fans. He said, “Guys, Patrick said he will only sign autographs after his round if he plays well today. If he has a bad round, please don’t ask for anything.”
This pushed me over the edge. I already disliked the guy, but I got so mad that I yelled out, “Patrick Reed sucks,” and followed him for a couple of holes to boo him as he teed off. What a jerk!
The fact that he couldn’t take just 2 seconds to sign a hat for his supposed number one fan is insane to me. That little kid had one shot to meet him, and he made himself look like a total jerk. I can’t stand him and I probably always will.

I’ve never met him, but his wife Justine was called out on this forum for arguing with random users while defending him, it was hilarious.

When did this happen?
Three or four years ago? There was a Twitter account that defended Patrick for everything, from the cheating in college to the bunker incident, and others. They even said the PGA was hypocritical after Rory got relief from a similar situation. Someone figured out that the account was Justine based on prior posts.

The only backing he’s got is from Donald Trump in that Bryson video. I almost spilled coffee when Trump said, ‘That Patrick Reed is a great guy’. Perfect fit.
