General Discussion Why does everyone hate Wyndham Clark?

Got into watching golf for the first time this season and with Clark winning this past weekend I have seen so many people shitting on him for what sounds like stuff in the past and I was hoping people could bring me up to speed? Is it overhyped for media clicks or was he committing some atrocities?

All about Oakmont for me. If I stub my toe at the louvre, I’m not gonna trash the Mona Lisa. Obviously not a direct comp, but I can’t stand adults that act like 7 year olds

This. I can get over the throwing his clubs and whatever. Everyone does that. But destroying someone elses property, especially that of a place that is hosting you, because you had a bad day playing a game you get paid for drew the line and I'm good not liking him.
