But as it turns out, he also has a bit of a temper.
There was the time at the U.S. Open in 2011 in which he actually cut his hand while snapping a club:

Then, in 2013 at the BMW Championship, he snapped his driver after a double-bogey.

He was either A.) Blaming his bag for the poor raking or B.) Blaming ALL of his clubs at the same time.
Personally, I enjoy a good golf meltdown now and again.
Thanks, Henrik. Sorry, golf equipment.
