Reed earned Rolex AGA All-American honors for three consecutive years 2005 2006 and 2007. he then enrolled at the University of Georgia where his Collegiate golf career officially began the pro golfer played for just a year on the team before being dismissed for allegations of stealing and cheating these allegations were documented in Shane Ryan's book slaying the tiger a year inside the ropes on the new PGA Tour a statement from the assistant Gulf coach at Georgia Jason Payne paints a picture of what happened according to Payne a few character issues came to light while he was getting to know Reeds through the recruiting process as a coach and he felt he could help him out but once Reed was on campus for a couple of months Payne and the others realized that Patrick wasn't going to mess with the structure of the team at the time so he had to be dismissed from the team Patrick was obviously a fantastic golfer but in Payne's words it was read as a person that we chose not to associate with however Patrick denied the accusations in a Golf Channel interview maintaining he was dismissed for alcohol violations everyone knows why I got kicked out of UGA it was because of two drinking incidents I got kicked out of UGA why did you get kick out of here because because of two drinking incidences Patrick was also arrested for underage consumption of alcohol and having a fake ID in his possession he was eventually put on probation and was ordered to do community service one time his teammates turned on him for a watch four hundred dollars in cash and a putter that went missing from the locker room they suspected that Reed had taken them but he has refuted those allegations Reid also said he wants the various allegations about him retracted from the book authored by Jason Payne I'm all fuss about writing a book if it is about me or anybody as long as it's the right facts or someone writing a book you know about me or about anybody as long as it's the right facts and from his Viewpoint you'll realize the pro golfer is trying to make a case about how unfair it is to say he's stolen cheated in college and was even suspended when all that wasn't true according to him if the book is telling the truth I'm all for it but they just went on and on saying I got suspended for stealing and cheating in college I'm all for it but uh you know to go out and say something that you know I stole and I cheated you know in college and I was suspended for cheating Reid would later file a defamation lawsuit against Brandon Chamblee for writing the book however Reed would eventually attend a different College he transferred to Augusta state where he studied business and played golf but the smoke just never cleared as he was once again accused of wrongdoing multiple times after Patrick allegedly saved two strokes off his scorecards his teammates wanted him off the team but the coach decided to hand him a two-match suspension as punishment instead Reed would lead Augusta state to NCAA division one titles in 2010 and 2011. in 2011 the Sportsman turned Pro and competed in his first PGA Tour Tournament that year the player entered tournaments in 2013 and ended up being the 12th rookie PGA Tour winner of the year the WGC Cadillac Championship was a pivotal event in his career he won the tournament and became one of a select group of elite golfers including Tiger Woods who have all won three PGA Tour events before turning 24 since 1990. in 2019 Tiger Woods selected read for the President's Cup match against the international team captained by Ernie Ells in Melbourne meanwhile golf analyst Randall Chamblee suggested that Woods had made a deal with the devil in picking Patrick and he turned out to be right after all during the third round of the Bahamas Hero World Challenge prior to the President's Cup Reed was penalized for purposely attempting to improve his lie in a bunker the player was spotted taking multiple practice swings that flattened the sand behind his ball not once but twice was his practice swing and you can see when he took the club back he definitely took some sand Reed was asked to speak with rules officials about the incident following his round Reed blamed it on the angle of the TV cameras which according to him made it look worse than it was this undoubtedly generated enough drama for the player and many commented on the occurrence from the broadcast studio sportscaster Dan Hicks stated that Reed did it on purpose British Open Champion cam Smith also made a nasty statement about cheating while obviously referring to Reed he said he has no sympathy for cheaters and warned that the American golfer May encounter hostility from golf fans and he did Reed was savagely abused by golf fans at every turn and armed police had to walk with him on the course it was so vicious that Kessler karane reads caddy lashed out at one fan also Brooks kepka who missed a biannual event due to knee surgery took a harder stain on read than his colleagues he claimed his Ryder Cup teammate was building sand castles in the bunker to improve his lie if you play the game and under the Integrity that goes on there's really no room for cheating then the rules you understand you know the Integrity that goes that goes on and I mean there's no room for it in 2021 Reed surprisingly found himself in the center of a storm of controversy at the Farmer's Insurance open Patrick found himself dealing with another Rule's issue when he sought relief for an embedded ball which TV replays shows at first bounced and he immediately picked up the ball before a rules official could arrive Patrick could be heard telling the rules official that the ball had not bounced but he refused to look at television replays I checked it and I believe it broke ground Reed said and as if that wasn't enough a golf fan added insult to injury for Patrick yelling cheater as his eight-foot birdie putt went well long on the final playoff hole with Justin Thomas and Xander shofley at the Tournament of Champions Reed was visibly upset glared at the fan as he softly melt his displeasure last June Reed shocked the gulf Community as he announced he'd be
