Ian Poulter’s Warning About U.S. Fans ‘Proven Right’ After Ryder Cup Scenes

After Europe’s win at Bethpage Black, many decried crowd behavior, echoing Poulter’s pre-event warning. “‘Mashed potato’ and that b***… ‘Get in the hole!’ on a 600-yard par-5, you f***ing idiot,” he said, joking he wanted “one taser per hole.” Incidents around McIlroy and Lowry fed the backlash, reinforcing concerns about hostility at the Ryder Cup on U.S. soil.
