In reality, the original rule was 'downright moronic'. The ball had come to rest on the green and was marked accordingly. Therefore that should be the ball location for the next shot, regardless of anything else that might happen. Just plain common sense. They very fact that this incident caused a rule change is an admission that the original rulemakers for this were downright incompetent.

What a shot! From that lie I’d be taking my medicine and chipping out! 😅

"If I break my wrist..." lol Shut up you whiner.

Two chip chen

Why didn't he drop it on the opposite side of the penalty area?

That it took something like this to happen in order to get the rules changed is dumb.

I double hit it last time i went out and it went into the water 😭

You put it there, hit it

Look I gotta thumbs up the subtle "Worst than most" call that made Koch snigger. I miss DF.

Na is painful to watch, must be agonizing to play with... but he's not wrong in this instance.

I would have called the ref back over and said "You're known as a shit official and you've just embarrassed yourself on international television - I can fully appreciate why you have the reputation. You either tried to cheat me or your judgement is so bad you shouldn't be a referee in this match."

I wonder would the rule have changed had the ball been blown into the hole for zero putts ?

can I get free relief from the sound balance on this video blowing out my right ear?

shooter mcgavin cant stop at nothing to win the tournament even cheating.

Happened me. Ended my golf career

Nothing more than yet another spoiled brat, threatening to hold his breath until he gets his way.

What I don't understand is why Billy is getting upset with the officials?

Take your lumps play sideways

Cheat

Don’t understand how he could have took an unplayable and placed it back on the green when his ball was about to roll 10 yards off. Thought you could not place/drop any closer to the hole.

Actually what Berger said was called for.

Play it as it lay or take a penalty and drop in a long club

screw golf in 2024....alot of greats turning over in their graves for what has become of pga.....

Get off the roids

I'd say alot of steep bunker shots are multi-hits if you slowed them right down

we group rule free drop for tree root, we don't want injury or broken club ...

Why, Happy Gilmore holed this very shot less than an hour ago.

I call it, lift clean and cheat! Play it where it lies.

Fyi, he two-putted to win the tournament (2021 Wells Fargo Championship).

Guess something must have changed. The rule in the past was 1 stroke plus a 2 stroke penelty for hitting the ball on the move minus one in penelty reduction equalling 2.

A few questions: 1. No penalty assessed to either player? 2. Does it make a difference where the balls collide? Does it matter if they collide before or past the hole? 3. What if the balled collided before the hole. Player #1 is out, so it is his turn to putt. He strikes his putt and it was obvious the putt would have dropped. But Player #2 putted out of turn and it was obvious his putt was not going to drop. So now both plays re-putt. This time, Player #1 misses his putt, while Player #2 makes his putt. Making both players re-putt actually penalizes Play #1, while Player #2 gained an advantage. Is the correct?

So let’s say the wind blows the ball, and it happens to roll into the cup. No stroke? The previous stoke count would’ve applied?

I would say that ball is unplayable. You could never reasonably hit that in there. You could barely rake it out.

That's why ball striking is everything!

which rule again is it that says you are entitled to whack it as hard as you can directly to the flag? you brought yourself into this situation, get out of it. Go back to the tee, take a penalty... whatever... stop whining about ooh I could hurt my wrist... play a very small chip...If you are afraid to hurt yourself, play it safe!

So we’re talking about if both balls are in motion at the same time then

Nice little temper tantrum Mr. Millionaire. Life can be so cruel.

Another Tour Cheat

Why would you want to take your fourth shot from the provisional when you can take an unplayable and hit your third from there?

I see that they changed the rule but I don't know why. If anything should have been changed it would be the legal slope of the putting green.

Patrick Reed is a moron.

Play it as it lies. I had to hit it off Frankenstein's fat foot. Lol. Happy Gilmore!

Proof that using your brain other than brawn is always better
