WATCH: Jason Dufner has a hissy fit as he drops a shot during final round

Take it handy there, Jason

Sean McMahon

No need for this carry-on.

One-time major winner, Jason Dufner, entered today’s final round at the RBC Heritage at the Harbour Town Golf Links – South Carolina in pole position with a one-shot lead.

As we found out earlier with Wicklow’s Paul Dunne, entering the final day as tournament leader can bring a lot of pressure.

Dufner, who won the US PGA in 2013, is looking for his first Tour victory since January 2016 where he won at the CareerBuilder challenge at PGA West.

After nine holes, Dufner is currently one shot off the pace after shooting three bogeys on the front nine.

His second bogey of the day, which occurred on the fifth hole, seemed to get the best of the Cleveland native.

He’s clearly pissed off for bogeying another hole but his reaction to this isn’t exactly something we see too much in golf.

After he secures the bogey, Dufner drops the putter on the green and walks off in a huff – leaving his caddy with the job of picking up after him.

Not exactly admirable behaviour.

Safe to say this didn’t go unnoticed and there wasn’t much support for the 40-year-old.

At the time of writing, Dufner is tied for second through 10.

One shot behind leader Ollie Schniederjans.
