After a rough hole, 2007 Masters winner Zach Johnson vented his frustration.<\/p>\n

The Team USA Ryder Cup captain had a nightmare on the 12th hole at Augusta National Friday, recording a triple-bogey on the par 3.<\/p>\n

His tee shot went out of bounds, bringing him back to the tee box for his third, which came up short. He chipped on and then two-putted for the triple.<\/p>\n

After he finally holed out, several spectators could be heard sarcastically cheering.<\/p>\n

At that point, Johnson appeared to turn toward them and yell, “Oh, f— off.”<\/p>\n

Johnson was asked about it afterward but said it was “completely laughable” that he “swore at the patrons.”<\/p>\n

“I can\u2019t hear the patrons, No. 1. No. 2, I just made a triple bogey on the 12th hole that evidently is going to make me miss the cut, which at the time, I knew was pretty sensitive in the sense that I needed to keep making pars,” Johnson said after his second round.<\/a> He did miss the cut.<\/p>\n

“If I\u2019ve said anything, which I\u2019m not going to deny, especially if it\u2019s on camera, one, I apologize, and two, it was fully directed towards myself entirely because I can\u2019t hear anything behind me. Does that make sense?”<\/p>\n

One of golf’s most famous influencers, Paige Spiranac, wasn’t pleased.<\/p>\n

“The patrons at Augusta are unbelievably supportive and mild mannered,” she wrote on X Friday night<\/a>. “You can\u2019t find a more pleasant environment to play golf in. The fact ZJ said this proves he\u2019s softer than baby poop. Such a bad look.”<\/p>\n

If he did, in fact, have a moment with the gallery, it isn’t his first this year. At the Waste Management Open, he had to be held back by security while speaking with fans.<\/p>\n

It’s unknown what provoked Johnson to speak up, but rumors swirled that it was a negative comment about his Ryder Cup captaincy. Team USA was blown out by Team Europe in Rome late last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

“Don’t sir me. Somebody said it. I’m just sick of it,” Johnson told some fans. “Just shut up.”<\/p>\n
