He also once expressed that Greg Norman should resign from his role as CEO of the Saudi League. But the recent incident has brought the golf star into the limelight again. And after numerous speculations about what happened, McIlroy has finally opened up. [https://image-cdn.essentiallysports.com/wp-content/uploads/Patrick-Reed-Rory-McIlroy-2.jpg] According to McIlroy [https://www.golfmagic.com/dp-world-tour/mcilroy-reed-spat-im-living-reality-i-dont-know-where-hes-living], when Reed came forward to greet him, he didn’t feel the need to say hello. “I was down by my bag and he came up to me, and I was busy working and sort of doing my practice, and I didn’t really feel like — I didn’t feel the need to acknowledge him,” he said. “So I didn’t see a tee coming my direction at all, but apparently that’s what happened. And if roles were reversed and I’d have thrown that tee at him, I’d be expecting him a lawsuit.” Seven Years [https://www.essentiallysports.com/golf-news-liv-golf-patrick-reed-suffers-a-major-career-setback-for-the-first-time-in-seven-years/] Well, fans could take that as a warning from McIlroy to the LIV Golf defector. But he has not confirmed taking action against his former PGA Tour fellow yet. And during his claims, McIlroy also revealed that he was allegedly “subpoenaed” by Reed’s lawyer on Christmas Eve. And he definitely didn’t take it well. “I’m living in reality, I don’t know where he’s living. If I were in his shoes, I wouldn’t expect a hello or a handshake,” he added. As per McIlroy, he was not ready to rebuild relations with another LIV Golf player.

<span style="font-weight: 400">While his individual resume may be impressive, Patrick Reed’s team appearances have also been worthy of appreciation. He also won the Presidents Cup with Team USA in 2016, 2017, and 2019. Moreover, Reed has represented the American Team in 2014, 2016 (winners), and 2018 editions of the Ryder Cup.

<span style="font-weight: 400">Though Reed’s signing bonus with LIV Golf is publicly undisclosed, he has reportedly signed a multi-million dollar deal. Moreover, Patrick Reed has already earned $14,722,714 on the course while competing for LIV Golf. He also has endorsement deals with Nike, Titleist, Rolex, Mercedes-Benz, and others.</span>
<h2><b>Patrick Reed’s Controversy </b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Though Reed has been one of the best golfers on the professional circuit, his talents have been overshadowed by numerous controversies. The golfer was suspended from competing on the PGA Tour following his decision to join LIV Golf. He was even denied an entry to compete at the WGC Dell Technologies Match Play in March 2023.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">In 2022, Patrick Reed filed a defamation lawsuit against Golf Channel’s Brandel Chamblee for a reported $750 million fee. The golfer accused the journalist of destroying his reputation creating hate and a hostile work environment for him and also discrediting his name. However, the 120 allegations against Golf Channel were dismissed by a federal judge in Florida. Apart from his court cases, Reed also has several controversies on the golf course.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">During his college days at the University of Georgia, Patrick Reed was accused of cheating and stealing from his teammates. Many claim it was the </span><i><span style="font-weight: 400">‘stealing’ </span></i><span style="font-weight: 400">reason that got Reed dismissed from the University, though the golfer claims he was dismissed due to alcohol violations. Apart from his locker room allegations, Reed was </span><span style="font-weight: 400">arrested for underage drinking and possessing a fake ID during his time in Georgia. He pleaded guilty to the misdemeanor and was put on probation, fined, and sentenced to 60 hours of community service.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">The allegations have continued following Reed even in his professional career. In the 2019 Hero World Challenge tournament, Reed was caught on camera shifting his ball out of the sand of the bunker by swinging twice at the 11th hole. The video immediately went viral and Reed was penalized by the PGA Tour, drawing immense heat from the fans.</span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Though Patrick Reed’s golf ball wasn't stuck in the sand during the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open, the golfer was accused of another allegation related to the rulings. On the 10th hole at Torrey Pines, Reed's second shot went around the rough. He claimed the ball was embedded in the rough which is why he chose to pick it by his hand. Similar to his 2019 Hero World Challenge incident, the golf community wasn't pleased with Reed’s actions. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Reed once again angered the golf social media space during the European Tour’s 2023 Dubai Desert Classic. According to him, his tee shot at the 17th hole at the Emirates Golf Club got stuck in a tree which allowed him to take a drop. However, golf fans immediately scrutinized the golfer for lying as many claimed the ball must have dropped around the trees. </span>
<h2><b>Patrick Reed’s Charity and Foundation</b></h2>
<span style="font-weight: 400">Like most golfers, Reed also doesn't hesitate in helping back society. Team Reed Foundation, a non-profit organization, was founded by the golfer dedicated to helping local and national communities. The Foundation helps homeless people, provides youth golf programs, and also supports American Soldiers and Veterans programs. </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">Since early 2019, Team Reed Foundation has partnered with Texas PGA Foundation to create the Patrick Reed Scholarship. It is aimed at a graduating senior who exemplifies what it means to be a student-athlete through a commitment to academics, athletics, and community involvement. The student will receive $10,000 from the golfer’s foundation which is to be used towards their college education. </span>

Though Patrick Reed’s golf ball wasn&#8217;t stuck in the sand during the 2021 Farmers Insurance Open, the golfer was accused of another allegation related to the rulings. On the 10th hole at Torrey Pines, Reed&#8217;s second shot went around the rough. He claimed the ball was embedded in the rough which is why he chose to pick it by his hand. Similar to his 2019 Hero World Challenge incident, the golf community wasn&#8217;t pleased with Reed’s actions.  Reed once again angered the golf social media space during the European Tour’s 2023 Dubai Desert Classic. According to him, his tee shot at the 17th hole at the Emirates Golf Club got stuck in a tree which allowed him to take a drop. However, golf fans immediately scrutinized the golfer for lying as many claimed the ball must have dropped around the trees.  Patrick Reed’s Charity and Foundation Like most golfers, Reed also doesn&#8217;t hesitate in helping back society. Team Reed Foundation, a non-profit organization, was founded by the golfer dedicated to helping local and national communities. The Foundation helps homeless people, provides youth golf programs, and also supports American Soldiers and Veterans programs.  Since early 2019, Team Reed Foundation has partnered with Texas PGA Foundation to create the Patrick Reed Scholarship. It is aimed at a graduating senior who exemplifies what it means to be a student-athlete through a commitment to academics, athletics, and community involvement. The student will receive $10,000 from the golfer’s foundation which is to be used towards their college education.  How to contact Patrick Reed?
