Useing the rules to your advantage is NOT cheating.
It's like being blamed for using the tax rules.
Its like you can move the ball free of penalty and you put it on a stone and hit it from there because you would use rule to take advantage if you would 've put it on a fairway
Right
But breaking a rule to your advantage is.
@@mrwonderful1584 who broke it ? Mickelson didn't he hit moving ball...he broke it, but we can play word games here what he did/didn't break it or use it for advantage...he broke it but stikl he had an advantege over if he didn't...even breaking rules, if you still have advantage is not CHEATING its breaking the rule...
Taking advantage of rules is fine.. but cheating is cheating
Fans should NEVER have a hand in rule violations. If the rules official didn't catch it then we move on. PERIOD.
Lexi got a raw deal. The mistake wasn't a 4 shot infraction. It had no bearing on the result it was only a fraction of an inch on the green with a short putt.
She knew how long has she been playing golf. It's just like brady and the footballs and people saying brady wouldn't be able to tell they had 2 psi lower than the 14psi😂😂 they are both pro athletes of course they cheated!😂 js no hate one love👍
@@bobbyhall7472 i mean brady's situation is a lot different especially because that is a different sport... she moved her ball less than an inch, no matter how she putted it, she would not have missed because it does not make a difference. she probably did it on accident
It’s still cheating and she has a responsibility to the field to play by the rules or accept the penalty. Since she finished the round and signed her score card incorrectly that could actually disqualify her. And as far as a fraction of an inch, if you play golf then you should know that that can be the difference in making and missing a short put. Why do you think players do it if it doesn’t help? And plenty of players do it, I know some who have made an art of it.
@@ishrocc4489 Do you golf? 1 inch can be a humongous difference, especially mentally
@@zanierrules do you know golf? I’m pretty sure i do cuz ive been playing before i started walking. It is by rule a penalty, we can’t change that, but i doubt she did it on purpose and it would not affect her putt at all for a few reasons.
1. It was a very close putt, looked around 1-2 feet, an inch either way would not change the aimpoint and result of the putt, especially because it looked like a very flat putt
2. It was moved forward, not to the side, and due to the reason stated before, it would not change her aimpoint
3. Due to these reasons why would she intentionally make this action knowing it’s would be a a penalty on a random 2ft putt??? It would make no sense for her to change it just due to the fact that it doesn’t change how she plays the putt at all.
One inch from that distance will not change how you should play that putt.
Using the rules to your advantage is not cheating.
knowing a rule and breaking the rule is not cheating. It is taking advantage of the rule. Not cheating
Mark O'Meara in Paris. I saw it live and almost fell out of my chair. Jarmo Sandelin called him out but was ignored because he's such a goofy character. But it was 100 percent intentional. Gotta love the European Tour camera shots back in the day. That ball rolled just outside Mark's comfort zone and it's almost like the cameraman knew it!
Is there a video of this somewhere?
The PGA allowing fans to interpret rules and call out players is the worst thing in sports.
Palmers example was actually following the rules exactly.
The Lexi Thompson incident was complete BS.
If Reed move sand on his practice shot, is that not grounding the club in a bunker?
I don’t think it was a bunker.
@@michaelpace1075 Unfortunately, you are correct. The PGA likes to deem such areas as "waste bunkers" under local rule, as was the case in this tournament.
yep, and it was not mentioned.
It wasn't a bunker. It was a waste area.
The rules are to be used. Not avoided. Genius.
Reed's face screams the name "Patrick"
Yeah... what's your point? Spell it out for us.
@@DWilliams-ce8nb he is probably referring to the word 'trick" in Patrick
The rules of golf are you bill of rights as a player. Using those rights to your advantage is not cheating. No one is perfect. Mistakes get made. Mistakes are not cheating.
Reed makes a joke of the Green Jacket.
Lexington Thompsons was ridiculous. Not a single person on this planet could replace ball EXECATLY in same spot without a shadow of a doubt.
Reed nevers cheats. Just ask him, his attorneys, and Greg Norman.
Lolol
Once the scorecard is signed and accepted... should not matter. Stop the call-in and emails from spectators.
Paul Azinger got disqualified back in the early 90s at the Doral Open while on the lead when he accidentally caused a rock to move when hitting a mostly submerged ball out of a lake because some over zealous fan saw it on TV and called it in. He was DQed for signing an incorrect scorecard because the penalty was assessed the next morning.
Using the same standard Tiger should have been disqualified from the Masters the year he took an illegal drop for signing an incorrect scorecard...but the Masters and PGA knew how much money they would miss out on if Tiger didn't play the weekend.
But I agree 100% No other sport allows this.
There is absolutely NOTHING wrong with taking advantage of rules to improve your situation.
Woods also took and an illegal drop at the Masters
Mcllroy took the same drop as Reed in a tournament without all the halabaloo
@@danbaumann6098 Reed's ball really did plug???? Where are you on the replay? Were you the fan who didn't see it bounce? When exactly did you personally get a look at it? Why didn't he wait for the official or at least ask his playing partner to have a look at it? He is obviously a cheating POS. I suppose you were standing at the camera angle he claimed would have shown he didn't move any sand after he lied about what was his ball to get a drop too.
@@danbaumann6098 Reed's ball 100% did not plug, no bouncing ball is plugging so far into GRASS that it's unplayable. The guy cheated for sure. Rory did too but let's not act like they BOTH didn't
@@zanierrules Agreed. Reed`s ball could not have been less plugged if it tried. LIV can have him..good riddance.
In any competition, if you don't take advantage of rule that favor you means you didn't work/study hard enough.
Patrick Reed is infamous for improving his lie with 'practice' swings. There is video of his ball deep in the rough and after a few practice swings, his ball was setting perfectly on top of the grass.
Phil gained an advantage? Nah, he gained +2 strokes
Thanks Mr Gabbles ⛳️
third party accounts of a fraction shouldn't be part of the rule placing a penalty on someone. what is needed is field and line judges watching every golfer in a tournament, like in "football". a judge has to actually see the rule break in action in order to penalize the player. it can be backed up on a replay camera, if they have one. what rule covers a golfer who while on the green uses his putter to "push" the ball by continuing contact with the putter and ball into the cup?
Those were great stories.🤣
Fans should not be allowed to chime in on rules or what they think is cheating
Yeah! No one should be allowed to have an opinion!
Why not? Because the golfer wouldn’t have been caught with a rules violation without the fan info? Because they would have gotten away with it otherwise?
Integrity: how you conduct yourself when no one is watching.
Ignorant people like to make their opinions known. It's like a fan right.
In fact, the commentator is guilty of this. He obviously doesn't understand the Rules of Golf, making numerous technical mistakes in describing what happened in in the Tiger Woods case. (BTW, Orlando Pope, PGA Rules Official, oversaw the entire situation and okayed the boulder being moved. In no way was this cheating. It was just intelligent golf.)
for the record, after that (and maybe some other similar call-in), NO call ins are allowed. If the situation isn't identified before the golfer signs their card, it's a non-issue. That is the problem with call-ins, the golfer is also penalized for signing an incorrect score. Not sure why Lexi wasn't DQ'd, so she caught a break there. No more call-ins from folks not at the golf course.
Mickelson was 4 over par. It wasn't like he was going to win the tournament.
If you don't cheat, you're just cheating yourself...
Cheating at golf means you cheating at life.
Lexi is not a cheater at all. Patrick cheats non stop
I didn't think you were allowed to touch the sand in a bunker, even on practice swings.
Correct. But under this tournament's local rules, the unmaintained sandy areas outside the fairways were deemed "waste bunkers". Rule 12 does not apply to such areas.
The rules of golf are objective, not subjective. Calling someone a “cheater” in golf 99% of the time, is just a bunch of frat boys who can’t break 90, complaining
Thanks Shane ⛳️
The Golden Rule applies to everything!
The only cheater in the video was Reed, Tiger’s was questionable but within the rules. Palmer never had to cheat, Venturi as always jealous of him and a sore loser.
😩😩😩
Imagine how sick in the head you have to be to cheat at sports
If im not mistaken there are some rewards for people who are “whistle blowers” like if they call in someone breaking a rule and it turns out to be true, i can’t remember the whole story but I know there was something like that at one time at least
PGA has some out of date rules! Lets people move a huge bolder for certain player!
USGA governs the Rules of Golf. The PGA controls conduct of play, including course set-up and local rules.
The mickelson putt is following the rules just as much as waiting for the ball to stop. If the result is unacceptable then change the penalty. Its no different from dropping out of water, its just more expensive
John Daly did something similar at the US Open in the late 90s if I recall correctly...but we expect that kind of behavior from him when he is having a bad round.
the first one is not cheating. smart players do that in every sport and game, like calling a timeout at a good time
Well, heck with it. If Reed can get away with moving the ball. I can too. When a ball bounces off the cart path. No way it made a ball impediment. And the he moved 8 inches of sand. Give me a break.
There are countless videos of Reed improving his life with 'practice swings'. I remember one where the ball was deep in the rough and after he took a few practice swings it was sitting on top of the grass almost perfectly.
Reed can deny that he cheats all he wants. Serial killers on death row maintain their innocence, that doesn’t make them not guilty either.
Why is Tiger in here? It's literally allowed by the rules 🤦🏻♂️
Can’t cheat? Don’t play! 🤣
While I can appreciate various opinions over what someone’s “intent” was, the facts are what they are: Using the rules in a manner which helps you isn’t cheating - that isn’t an opinion, it’s a fact. In the first example Mickelson new what the penalty was for what he was doing and simply decided it was worth it. Again, you can question whether or not THAT OUGHT to be the rule, but IT IS the rule and therefore it’s not cheating. It’s just using the rules to your advantage.
I can’t understand people who cheat and still manage to brag about their score. It’s really a funny thing to do. Trying to impress with lies. My bil plays golf every week and cheats at every hole, be it improving every lie, taking mulligans, moving ball from behind all obstacles or using the hand wedge to get out of sand traps. Still he manages to show off his score card and brags about how many birdies he’s made. Gives a hole by hole account of his best shots and tells of how he beat his other brother. They both equally cheat by the way, so in that sense it’s a fair game, as strange as that sounds. I can no longer play with them. It disheartens me.
I know a guy who plays golf with his Saturday foursome and one guy, who he was playing against, hit a long second shot into a short par 5, with the green severely elevated (blind shot). The other 2 golfers congratulated him on most likely landing it close to the stick. The “cheater guy” drove up to the green way ahead of everyone and threw the guys shot in the bunker and placed his own ball where the other was…2 ft from the cup. When the rest of the group got to the green, cheater guy said “you’re in the bunker and I’m here.” Everyone knew what must have happened, but no one said anything. smh.
Simple: It does not matter if you broke a rule intentionally or by accident, the rule stands.
Thanks for watching ⛳️
Man, what defamatory statements! Whoever you are, you are either very brave or very foolish. The smart money is on foolish.
It's a two shot penalty not a disqualification. No rule that says DQ if you intentionally break a rule, but if that's a rule than sure.
Otherwise the penalty for the rule is what it is, not what people deemed fit.
appreciate you tuning in Taylor ⛳️
Tiger's wasn't even close to cheating.
If they let Tiger have an ottoman sized boulder moved under the loose impediment rule, don't blame Reed for moving an impacted ball. All of these pros bend the rules to their favor to their benefit. And, don't forget Arnold Palmer & his mulligan/redo!
This whole video could be just about Patrick Reed.
Funny though how most casual golfers that hate "cheating" pros fudge their own score cards...
If you're gonna say Phil Mickelson "cheated" then you're gonna have to say that everyone who took a penalty to take a drop "cheated", lol.
I hope some of those golfers on here that were wrongfully accused of being cheaters sue the maker of this video.
A violation of the rules, intentional or not, is still a violation of the rules. Any intentional violation of the rules is, in my opinion, cheating.
No pics of Blalock. Calling Phil a cheater was not at all fair. None of these people improved his or her lie. Tiger let the rules help him
Look, it’s a mute point on mickelson. If the rules say it’s a disqualification then that is what it is but it isn’t a disqualification. Mickelson smartly used the rules to his advantage. He broke the rule and paid the penalty that was in place for that infringement.
I don't think he even made the cut, so who cares? He played like trash at that tournament.
Who wouldn’t help tiger move a Boulder
If I was a spectator I'd have sat on the boulder till he lined up his next shot.
Tiger woods taking advantage of the rules is not cheating.
He wasn’t even taking advantage of them, anyone could have done that, and I’m sure there would have been a ton of fans who were willing to help any pro out there who needed the rock moved just so they could be involved. The fact that it was tiger made no difference.
He disrespected Shinnecock
Hardly any of this is actually cheating
Mickelson knew the rules. Not Cheating. Woods got clarification...not cheating (but really a boulder?) Reid got clarification of plugging. not cheating. unfortunate Mistake.
So tiger woods followed exactly the rules, and Phil broke a rule and was awarded the appropriate penalty. I just got caught CLICKBAITING
Heh, heh! 🤭🤫😋
Yes don’t make golf even more annoying
Eventhough I am not a Mickelson fan. He knows the rules.
Well he didnt last week and was corrected by the officials.
not strange LIV players mentioned, the PGA Tours pays well the propaganda🤣🤣
That penalty on Lexi was ludicrous. She did what everyone does on every first putt. Every one involved in penalizing her must not officiate again!
Not everyone and certainly not me.
However, I don't like the way in which the penalty was flagged. It's a situation where I'd say call it as soon as you see it, so that the player can correct himself, or don't call it at all. Calling it in from home makes my skin crawl.
Nope. What she did was obvious even from a distance.
Reed did it again last weekend.
I hate people that cheat in my group. I about died when this guy was angry the whole round. I asked him what his score was. He said 84. I about passed out
It’s hilarious right? Dude hits 2 tee shots OB and magically still gets a bogey
@@PNW_Sportbike_Life haha. I need to let it go. But still bothers me
@@PNW_Sportbike_Life sounds about like my golf game 😂
For Reed's imbedded ball, the video sgows that his bakl bounced after landing, so was not imbedded. He's a clear cheater
WHY would Mickelson have to be disqualified ? Nonsense...this is like you get shot free of penalty (hitting drain on fairway) and drop the ball in the rough or play it from the drain...what are you even talking about?
But if those things were cheating i am wondering if thats video is cheating
And even Tiger DIDN'T cheat because it was moveable...
Phil knew better and was a bad look and same with tiger. No other player short of Phil or Rory could pull that off. Neither cheated but not best look.
Hater's hate,this is just another hater,I caddie the Shriners here in Vegas,we had Reed in our group, he's a nice guy,very friendly,very approachable,He looks you in the eye when he speaks,he also listens when you reply.
Don't judge a man on some CZcams scumbags attempt to get views
Phil Mickelson has never cheated
The AI voice kills this video for me…
Hmmm no Gary player on this list
I cheat sometimes when playing alone. Don't post the scores.
No DQ for Mickelson. The 2 shot penalty is justified and fair. But it's not in the spirit of the game. Bad sportsmanship. And I like Phil.
Is Reed the chubby kid still on tour?
Not bad
Patrick Rheat
Exploiting is not cheating
Woods was caught more than once at cheating. Of course they won't bring those up.
Cheaters. They are everywhere.governments casino schools etc.
I like how the thumbnail shows Patrick Reed but the video is about Mickelson.
i dont know golf, but I know people. that reed dude 100% cheats in all aspects of life. hes the kind of person that wont pay contractors. I have zero doubts
Reed is a CHEATER NOT ONCE BUT MANY TIMES. All his fellow players know it and call him a cheater.
Lexi would have choked it anyway!!
I don’t think Lexi would intentionally cheat!!
I think others had complained that she regularly altered her ball positions when marking them on the greens, much as Blaylock had done . Put the marker slightly to one side then when replacing the ball move it to the other side can alter the line if not closer to the hole. A professional should know and be able to properly mark and replace their ball...she KNEW what she did. Perhaps her other competitors didn't want to make a stink about it, but when the Officials were presented with the video evidence...and no doubt they'd heard the rumors...they took action. 4 strokes is pretty harsh..but it is what it is.
Yes, that was obviously deliberate and not forthe first time.
@@recoilrob324 u are right about that. They are professional golfers and have been playing long enough to know.
Be the number
Love it! Be the right number TODAY! ⛳️⛳️
Reed was 100% cheating in both instances!? U can't touch the sand at all until u r actually hitting the ball!? The club head cannot touch the sand at all until the actual shot is played and u can't touch the sand on the backswing...1st contact with sand has to be on downswing while hitting the ball!? It's pretty simple!? And the "embedded" ball was 100% cheating too cuz clearly that ball was never embedded! It was just buried down in the rough and he knew he wouldn't be able to make a good shot so he moved the ball, and probably pushed the ball into the ground to make a Lil depression to try to sell the "embedded" ball thing, but really I think either way he should've gotten a penalty for it cuz he didn't wait for officials to verify that his ball was in fact embedded so he should've been penalized cuz there's no way they could know for sure that ball was embedded and they shouldn't just take the players word for it!? And the depression they said was where his ball originally stopped was probably done by him while moving the ball..he probably pushed it into the ground to make the depression!? And I'd be willing to bet that the depression that was there wasn't deep enough to consider it embedded in the ground!? Clearly from replay u can see it was never embedded...it takes a bounce and then settles down in the deep rough, which would be a very difficult shot to make, and Reed clearly saw his ball was in a bad lie and he quickly moved it and claimed it was embedded!? Even if it was embedded he should've been penalized either way cuz he moved it b4 an official verified that it was in fact embedded!? If it was really embedded then he should've waited for officials to see it and tell him he could move the ball but he didn't do that cuz the ball wasn't embedded at all so he just figured he'd move it and claim it was embedded and I'd bet he made the depression they saw by pushing ball into the ground as he was going to pick it up and move it!?
Thanks Nate ⛳️⛳️⛳️
reed does not look honest.
reed is cheating master.
lexi is a LPGA golf pro
mistake? NoNoNo that's cheating.
We will call a cheater...'lexi reed'
A jealous hater who could not even make the high school team wrote this article
Lol this video is a joke. The like to view ratio tells you everything you need to know.
A lot of these aren't cheating. Sounds more like bitter fans and players complaining because they don't know the rules as good as they all claim too 🤷♂️
Im sorry but "taking advantage of the rules to get out of a tight spot" is not cheating.
Patrick reed should change his name to Patrick Cheat.
If you’re not cheating, you’re not trying.
