DANIEL MATTHEWS AT AUGUSTA: Fans are allowed to bring cameras inside Augusta for practice rounds but as soon as the tournament starts on Thursday, the club bans many electronic devices.
When looking back on the 2026 Masters, Sergio Garcia will honestly be able to say he accomplished two things: making the cut at Augusta National for the first time since 2022, and building on his reputation of having the shortest fuse in the game's history. Garcia, paired alongside fellow Spaniard and former Masters champion Jon Rahm on Sunday, had the third tee time of the morning, and it took him just one hole to completely unravel and make a fool of himself. The Garcia-Rahm pairing was a featured group on Sunday morning, meaning fans got to witness, and capture, the mayhem unfold.After making bogey on the opening hole, Garcia hit his drive on the Par 5 second, and before his golf ball even reached its apex, he took a chunk out of the tee box before smashing and snapping his driver on a nearby water cooler.Just pure, unfiltered, vintage stuff out of the 46-year-old.READ: Scottie Scheffler Calls Out Reporter's 'Awful' Question At The Masters, Is Now Even More LikableIt goes without saying that this type of behavior, on any golf course, is unacceptable, but for a former Masters champ to lash out like this when he's 16 shots back from the lead is stunning. Even for Garcia, who has done plenty of damage to plenty of golf courses throughout his career.Perhaps the funniest part about his embarrassing moment on the second hole on Sunday is that he ultimately made a par on the hole.In typical Augusta National fashion, a pair of workers took to the damage done on the second tee just minutes later.While the featured group broadcast showed Garcia's tantrum on the stream, it wasn't captured on the official shot tracker, where fans can watch each shot from every player in the field.
No golf tournament in the world runs as tight a ship as The Masters. The legendary tournament is famed for its strict and well-enforced rules regarding its brand and everything that takes place at Augusta National Golf Club. One of the most notable rules surrounding the event is its zero-tolerance “no-phone” policy, which even applies to […] The post Scammers Are Taking Advantage Of Augusta National’s No-Phone Policy At The Masters appeared first on BroBible.
If you thought Sergio Garcia winning The Masters in 2017 would calm his fiery demeanor, it’s time to rethink that idea. The 46-year-old Spaniard, who was once thought to be a player who could rival Tiger Woods for decades, has always been a bit of a black sheep in the golf world. His talent is undeniable. But Garcia’s behavior, […] The post WATCH: Sergio Garcia Destroys Masters Tee Box With Temper Tantrum After Awful Drive appeared first on BroBible.
Scottie Scheffler played his way right back into contention during the third round of the Masters on Saturday, and while he was undoubtedly in great spirits after signing his scorecard, he still had no time for pointless questions from the media.After playing his way onto the front page of the leaderboard with a bogey-free 65 in the third round, Scheffler made a quick stop in the press flash area at Augusta National. The first reporter to ask a question asked Scheffler what his score "could have or should have been."Scheffler wasn't having it, and understandably so. After all, his 65 was a career-low for him at the Masters, a tournament he's already won twice in his career."That's just a terrible question, next question, awful," Scheffler said, before offering up what felt like a disingenuous laugh.While by no means was the question good, it was an entirely fair one. Scheffler played his opening 11 holes on Saturday at 6-under par, and with two Par 5s left to play on the outward nine holes, the entire golf world expected him to get to 8-under par at worst. He went on to make par on both of the gettable Par 5s on the back nine, with his last birdie of the day coming on the Par 3 16th hole.Scottie himself admitted it could have been an even deeper score on Saturday."Overall could have been — I mean, I guess to answer your question, it wasn't maybe that bad, but it definitely could have been lower," he answered to another question.On the human level of things, Scheffler calling it like he sees it, and having an off-the-cuff response is entertaining. He's the No. 1 player on the planet, and not giving the most perfect, PR friendly responses to what he saw as an "awful" question makes him more relatable, and in essence, more likable.Scheffler is held to the highest standard possible on the golf course, and after meeting that standard as he did on Saturday at the Masters, it's certainly alright for him to offer up a blunt response when he feels like the bar is perhaps unfairly raised.
