PGA tour winner says golfers who beat up course look 'very spoiled' after Sergio Garcia's Masters meltdown

PGA Tour winner Max Homa talks to Fox News Digital about the issues he sees with social media, and how taking a step away from it has benefitted his mental health.

Six-time PGA Tour winner Max Homa said he doesn’t like golfers beating up the course in frustration, saying it makes those who play the sport look "very spoiled."

Homa, 35, was asked about the code of conduct at the Masters and what he thinks dictates a violation following Sergio Garcia's receipt of a code-of-conduct warning at the Masters for beating up a tee box. Homa did not directly mentioning Garcia’s name but took issue with Garcia’s meltdown.

"I don't like when people break clubs. I don't like when people beat up the golf course, because we deal with it, and I think the breaking clubs makes us look very, very spoiled," Homa said during a press conference Wednesday at the RBC Heritage.

"I try my absolute best not to do it. And when it does happen, as far as slamming a tee box, I’m very upset with myself, because we’re very lucky to play this game where we do, and I think it is a bad look."

Garcia apologized for his outburst in a post to social media on Tuesday.

For Homa, in addition to controlling his physical outbursts, he tries to watch his language when on the golf course as well.
