And look, I hear you in the hyper nationalism front. I enjoy the Ryder Cup but it certainly feeds this kind of situation. You can’t expect players (or caddies) to be jeered for 9 straight hours and not expect some kind of occasional inappropriate reaction.
Yeah the fans are definitely part of the issue, it creates a pretty fuelled up situation.

Look I should give the caddy the benefit of the doubt a bit too, I find it hard to believe he was purposely doing that, he got caught up in the moment. That said, once you realize it, it’s probably time to just shuffle away.
