A person was heard shouting: “Get out of here Kathy!”
She smiled through him, but Ryder Cup fans made their voices heard.
The representative Elise Stefanik, R-New York, made fun of Hochul on social networks, calling the “brutal” boos.
“Bad day for the worst governor of the United States,” Stefanik added.
Hochul’s assistance occurred two days before President Donald Trump will attend for the start of the Ryder Cup between Team United States and Team Europe. Trump has played golf with players on both sides in recent years while working to try to repair the relationship between the PGA Tour and Liv Golf.

Scottie Scheffler said Tuesday that Trump’s presence in the tournament is “important.”
“Having the president here, have been a difficult weeks for our country with some of the things that have been happening, and having our president here and to represent the United States of America, although in a golf tournament, it is extremely important for us, and we are excited to be in their native soil with the local crowd, and we are ready to obtain this tournament,” said Schoffler.
Scheffler also revealed that he has spoken with Trump after some of his great victories in the course, praising him as someone who “loves the golf game” and “treats people with the greatest respect.”
“I receive a call or a text message sometimes after winning. He simply loves the golf game, and is one of those guys when you are close to him, he does a good job, such as feeding confidence in all those around him,” Scheffler said.
“That was one of the things that I noticed a lot with the little time I spent with him, is that he treats everyone in the same way and treats people with the greatest respect. Whether it is the person who serves us lunch or the caddie in the golf course or the guy who is the president of the club that we are, treats everyone as the best person in the world.”
