Moments ago, protesters storm 18th green on the final round of the Travelers at TPC Riverside in Cromwell, Connecticut, leaving a few spots of white and red paint. Five were arrested.

After a brief cleanup, Scottie Scheffler parred and Tom Kim sunk his putt prompting a playoff. Officials were forced to change the hole location on the 18th serving as the first playoff hole. Details at 11:00.

What were they whining about?

The only reference I could find in a news article said "It was unclear what they were protesting about."

People are getting so sick of this ridiculous and useless shit!

The attackers on Stonehenge a few days ago? Damn them!

that's effective

Probably just protesting to let the PGA players wear shorts.

i imagine it will be a bit longer before they divulge identities, motive, etc. Will say the cops apprehended them within seconds, kudos for that

Your choices: hamas, trans or climate, this time the last of these. maybe the cops should have used sticks to bonk them on their heads

Unless and until there is severe punishment, this shit will continue...and get worse.

And, I hate to be that guy, but the thread title is a bit misleading.

Hope the state prosecutes them, too often the gov't lets them get off without a conviction. Golf course should sue the idiots. The judgment wouldn't be immediately collectable but in some states tax refunds can attached. Another possible collection remedy is down the pike when the idiot wants to buy a house their credit report shows "unpaid judgment." The computer has a long memory.

"No golf on a dead planet" Ts? I'll put $5 on the "Climate" square.

It's a really catchy slogan, isn't it?

They should have been disciplined with golf clubs. That would have been appropriate. (And, FUN to watch!)

Your thread title is ridiculously over sensational.

It's a bunch of protestors at a golf tournament.

Protest alleged pollution caused climate change with more pollution?

News Media term:

Actual term:
Assholes.

this was posted in less than a minute after it ocurred, there was no "damn link" dammitt

If the protestors (childish, easily manipulated assholes) actually assaulted, vandalized or otherwise annoyed something or someone associated with or valued by the wealthy and politically connected then they may actually face undesired consequences.
