For those of you who have been attending in person the matches over the past say year, what has been the protocol IYHO on clapping/cheering for good shots?
Things have changed over the years.

..do you mean like, when,
attendee's, spectators yelling "in the hole!!!" on a 490 uphill par4 dog leg left into the wind from a tiger woods drive?
attendee's, spectators thought also that it was cool to trash the T Box on such a thing, PGA old timers thought differently about that.
Gambling Spectators today with some alcohol and a little bit of smoke in a 10 - 12 table runout @the oaklawn... priceless.

I hated watching WPBA on ESPN. The audience claps for every single shot, no matter how routine. Makes the audience seem not too knowledgeable about the game.
Here's an example.

That first rack they showed was basically all tough shots, some really nice. But then in the second rack I see what you mean lol. That would annoy me if I was playing
That's because they weren't! Nothing worse than someone applauding a good shot as soon as the ball goes in the pocket, before they even wait to see where the cue ball ends up - which often is not good.
We have one of our weekly 9-ball tournament players that has often says "good shot" to their opponent as the 9-ball is on the way to the pocket, and sometimes it doesn't go in. When shooting the 9-ball and your opponent says good shot as the 9-ball is still rolling towards the pocket, shouldn't that be considered as concession of game regardless of whether the balls goes in?
Not in my opinion, as long as it isn't said before the cue ball has left the tip of the cue.
