Kathy Hochul Gets Drowned in Boos During Ryder Cup Opening on Long Island [WATCH]

New York Governor Kathy Hochul faced a hostile reception at the opening ceremony of the 2025 Ryder Cup, where golf fans loudly voiced their disapproval during her appearance, as reported by The Gateway Pundit.

The event, held on Wednesday at Bethpage on Long Island, brought in thousands of spectators eager for the start of the international golf competition. But when Hochul stepped onto the stage, the audience erupted into boos that continued throughout her presence.

One attendee shouted, “You’re the worst!” as others joined in with jeers.

Comedian Carson Daly, who was part of the program, attempted to break the tension with a lighthearted remark, but his effort failed to sway the crowd.

Hochul quickly exited the stage, though the response from attendees did not let up. Every time her name was mentioned by another speaker, the boos resumed, creating an ongoing display of disapproval from New Yorkers in attendance.

The reaction quickly spread online as clips of the crowd’s response went viral. Representative Elise Stefanik (R-NY) shared one of the videos with a pointed comment.

“EMBARRASSMENT ALERT!!! Fans badly and brutally booed the Worst Governor in America @kathyhochul at Bethpage, at the @rydercup,” Stefanik posted.

The incident at the Ryder Cup comes as speculation grows around Stefanik’s potential bid for governor in 2026. While she has not formally launched a campaign, Stefanik has repeatedly hinted at challenging Hochul for the state’s top office.

The Ryder Cup ceremony was meant to spotlight the international competition and highlight New York as a host, but the loud crowd response ensured the focus shifted to Hochul’s unpopularity in her own state.

The repeated waves of boos each time her name came up underscored the political pressure she continues to face ahead of her next election cycle.

For Hochul, who has battled criticism over crime, taxes, and state management since taking office, the incident at Bethpage marks another public sign of frustration among New Yorkers.

For Stefanik and other Republicans in the state, the viral moment has already become a rallying point to highlight voter dissatisfaction with the governor.
