Tiger Woods is one of the greatest golfers of all time. The legend has won 15 major championships in his career and has made many more records. Golfers all around the world look up to Woods as their idol.

The 46-year-old golfer is amazing at his game and hardly hits a bad shot. However, he also gets irritated on the field, like others during the game. And the interesting thing is that it’s not always because of missing a shot, or not playing. Sometimes, the fans are the cause of the golfers’ frustration.

And for a player like Woods who is well-known for his discipline on the field, this is quite a big problem.
