Ian Poulter had some attention grabbing comments about US golf fans earlier this week. Mashed potato and all the that you hear. It’s not heckling. It’s just complete and utter embarrassing stupidity. How do the fans feel about those remarks? Let’s go find out. First of all, one, welcome to Long Island. We call them flids, right? Effing Long Island douchebags. And that’s how we roll. That’s that. That’s That’s my take on that one. Nothing against Europeans, but you’re gonna come to my home course. We’re gonna let you have it. He’s soft. Can’t handle it. Can’t handle the pressure. Well, he’s soft. I’ll throw it right back at him. Patriotism stupid. He wasn’t. But he was like, I don’t know. What do you have to say? I got nothing to say to that. If you can’t take it, then don’t come. Yeah. Stay. Stay home. Ian ought to take a look in the mirror. Do you ever watch Have you watched him over the past RDER Cups? He stomps and yells and makes faces. So, I mean, he’s entitled to his opinion. He’s a great been a great player, but Ian, you got to look in the mirror, man. Bunch of ridiculous. It’s the passion that makes the fans great. That’s the USA. Team USA. We got this. Bring it home. USA has always been known to be loud and proud. Um, just kind of in our culture and that’s what we do, you know, like, uh, here to be loud, here to be proud, here to support the team. And Ian, like I hope eat a nice slice of humble pie. He crushed us many years in a row. So all respect, but that’s ridiculous. He’s a certified clown, that dude. Like come on. I think he should learn to adjust to his environment. Deal with it. Step up. You know, you know what you got when you come here, right? You We have passionate fans. We have passion fans everywhere. You want to come here to this place. You decided you want to come to play at Beth Paige Black. You have to deal with whatever comes with it. And welcome to Long Island. Like I said, as long as it’s done in the right humor with complete respect for the players and our fellow competitors and indeed the USA fans, I think it adds. It’s carnival, isn’t it? Like, we’re here to have fun and watch golf. If you’re hating and you know it, clap your hands. If you’re hating and you know it, clap your hands. If you’re really showing and you know it, clap your hands. We’ve got a

Ian nailed it & FLIDs is spot on. That being said,
go USA!!!!
Ah its patriotism and US culture to scream mash potato 😂😂 actually sounds about right
Geh Euro song
That Euro song geh
He’s lucky he doesn’t play anymore or they’d be on his ass every time he’s on a US tee
Not one person interviewed answered the question… mashed potato makes zero sense… You still only have one song 🇪🇺
Some of those interviewed are parodies of themselves. As for being loud, oh yeah they are loud! Lest we forget the ‘GET IN THE HOLE’ shout on Par 5 tee boxes 🙄
USA should always start 1 up for winning the revolutionary war and for saving their asses in WWII
OMG – they're ALL making his point for him!
Can’t take someone shouting mash potatoe….doesn’t even make sense you melts. Like shouting frozen strawberries – no relevance whatsoever
