Fans

Throughout the history of golf fans have been watching the sport with great enthusiasm and interest.  Fans have been showing the same etiquette and respect as player have. Golf fans do have certain rights or duties while watching their favorite player hit the ball 300 yards down the middle of the fairway.  The game of golf has been about respect, etiquette, and enjoyment.  Players have to show respect to the course and their opponents.  They also have to show a good attitude for the fans so they can be a good role model and a person to look up to.  These fans have to show the same attitude back to the players so they do not disturbed them while they are playing.  Fans have to be quite while players are preparing to hit a shot.  This let's the players play their games.
As this game has evolve and has attracted a much younger crowd , they have became alitte louder one could say. With these new younger players winning on tour it creates a new type of energy throughout the golf world.  After every shot you hear someone yells "GET IT THE HOLE" or "BABABOOIE".  And in the 2013 U.S. Open Championship you heard someone scream "King of the North" whenever Justin Rose hit a shot.  So it's safe to say that the game has gotten a lot louder and the 16th hole at The Waste Mangement is an example of that. That hole has turned into a stadium. It is the loudest hole in golf, which I think it is great. It creates a feel like football and basketball where the fans give the players energy and help boost their games.  Now a days, players love that stuff as the younger generation of players are all about energy and using the fans excitement to their advantage.
