The biggest question facing every WNBA team in training camp
WNBA training camps open with key questions for each team.
Sergio Garcia struggled during the final round of the 2026 Masters, finishing at 5 over and tied for 48th place. In a moment of frustration, he smashed his club against the tee box after a poor tee shot, despite eventually making par on the hole.
Follow along with live updates of all the final-round action at the Masters Tournament.
Sitting at 5 over and tied for 48th place, Sergio Garcia came into the final round of the 2026 Masters more or less out of the running.
Despite the struggles, Garcia, had a lot to play for. Not only is it always a good feeling to perform well at huge tournaments, but there's obviously prize money on the line. After all, the difference in prize money earned by 40th place compared to 48th place is a staggering $30,000.
Unfortunately for Garcia, the final round did not start off according to plan. He tallied two bogeys in the first four holes, bringing his tournament score up to 8 over. Clearly frustrated, Garcia did what many golfers have done before him – smashing his club against anything and everything.
Garcia's outburst came after his tee shot on the second hole. Funny enough, he actually wound up with a par on the hole, and he didn't shoot worse than even on the hole all weekend. Still, his tee shot was bad enough that he started smashing up the tee box, and as the post above explains, that's not a good look anywhere, let alone one of the most prestigious golf clubs in America.
Sergio Garcia plays his shot on the seventeenth hole from the eighth hole during the second round of the Masters Tournament at Augusta National Golf Club.
Yes. But it wasn't while he was smacking away at the tee box. It was moments later, when he took his fristrations out on the water cooler, or specifically the stand holding the water cooler.
After that, Garcia was seen carrying partner Jon Rahm's golf bag down the fairway while Rahm's caddie raked a bunker. Not a great look all around.
Just two holes later, Masters' chairman of the competition committee Geoff Yang delivered a conduct warning to Garcia.
Several times.
Garcia has become known for his meltdowns, such as when he was disqualified from the 2019 Saudi International for misconduct after intentionally destroying several greens after he collapsed in a bunker.
He also threw a tantrum at a rules official at a PGA Tour event just three weeks before signing with LIV in 2022.
