Patrick Reed is one of the most controversial golfers. However, one cannot deny that Reed is one of the top golfers. He has 9 PGA Tour titles and one major championship victory. Despite that, he is not so popular with his golf game among fans due to the controversies or cheating he allegedly did on the golf course.

Every year, there is at least one controversy surrounding Captain America. But these things don’t bother him anymore as he has made peace with them. Meanwhile, Patrick Reed was once outraged at a camera crew for creating a ruckus at the 2018 European Open in Germany.

So on the 10th hole, Reed had to make an up and down from near the bunker to save par. And as he was lining up to play the stroke, his caddie, Kessler Karain, told the crew to stop making the noise. However, Reed could still hear the coins, and he eventually stepped away from the ball.

“You are rattling change in your pocket,” said Reed’s caddie“You know what? I need you all to go over there on that side of the green. The camera guy too, since he’s part of you,” ordered Reed. “He lost privileges by going like that with change. Keep going. I’m not hitting until you all get the heck out of here.”
