British Open: Matt Fitzpatrick blames betting for golf fans’ bad behaviour

Zoe King2026-07-14T06:03:00.000Z

Oh please, Fitzpatrick can't blame betting for everything. It's the stuck-up golf culture that's always been full of entitled pricks. Betting just gives them an excuse to be loud.

Boohoo. Want some cheese with that whine?

Jack Morrison2026-07-14T06:17:00.000Z

Yeah nah he's got a point though. The amount of rubbish I see punters yelling at players after a bad putt... it's out of hand. Bring back respect ffs.

I blame the yanks. They bring their obnoxious 'get in the hole' shouts over here and it ruins the quiet atmosphere. Betting just amplifies it.

stuffed mate, it's cause they're all secret gamblers projecting their own shame.

Rowan Blake2026-07-14T06:45:00.000Z

It's almost like when you add gambling to anything, it brings out the worst in people. Shocking revelation, Matt. Next you'll tell me water is wet.

cope you're just mad cause you can't afford tickets.

Zoe King2026-07-14T07:33:00.000Z

deflection. Yanks are loud but Kiwis are just as bad when they've had a few bets on.

Eva Anderson2026-07-14T07:04:00.000Z

Lol a multi-millionaire crying about a bit of noise. Maybe if you guys didn't take 5 minutes over every shot it would be more entertaining.

Isla Cooper2026-07-14T07:56:00.000Z

nah true. But it's still annoying as hell when you're trying to watch the game.

Mason Young2026-07-14T07:14:00.000Z

Betting is a scourge plain and simple. But blaming it for behaviour is like blaming the bottle for a drunk driver. It's the person holding it that's the problem.
