what’s messed up is that wyndham clark has gotten away with this shit on tour and at the us open he “won” when he was looking right at the ball and should have noticed.
this with lowry today otoh i was watching live on the r&a featured group coverage and they cut to the other angle quicker which showed he wasn’t even looking at the ball when it moved so obviously he had no idea |

If they weren’t in the featured group would anyone have noticed this? |

but the clip you linked in op was from the usa network coverage not the featured group stream if that’s what’s you’re asking. same cameras shooting but different announcers and like i said cut slightly differently. the usa feed stays with the angle from behind longer whereas in the featured group coverage it cut to his face quicker and you could tell he wasn’t looking when it moved |

Date: July 18th, 2025 6:20 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund I really don't see the ball moving, golf could really stand to institute some more prestigious rules that take into account both intent and the actual impact of the little shit like this they should also make all fairways lift clean and place but old doods just can't imagine not being dicks |

Date: July 18th, 2025 6:28 PM Author: beady-eyed preventive strike personal credit line lol at not seeing the ball move. i noticed it immediately watching it live
the only thing messed up is that you get two strokes in this situation. the extra one for playing the ball without replacing it when there’s no way he could know it moved seems excessive these days when they’ve relaxed the rules on some of this stuff |

Date: July 18th, 2025 7:01 PM Author: cobalt halford corner nah. the player is in control and should know to be careful. as soon as you start introducing subjective calls like that you open up the possibility of a ref altering the outcome like a stupid roughing the passer or pass interference call in football.

Date: July 18th, 2025 7:39 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund you realize that they have marshalls making all sorts of calls on the course in real time that have a major effect on the tournament? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113076) |

Date: July 18th, 2025 7:48 PM Author: cobalt halford corner i shouldn't have said "as soon as." what i meant is that if a rule can be enforced objectively it should be. there is no reason to introduce analyzing intent and impact when the onus is on the player to be careful.

Date: July 18th, 2025 7:50 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund in deep rough this almost only ever happens because when you put your club near grass the natural thing for grass to do is move, there is no competitive function to this rule, it does nothing, they have all sorts of rules where you can move the ball but can't improve your lie, no reason you can't apply that logic to inadvertant movement of the ball caused by a secondary object (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113103) |
|
Date: July 18th, 2025 8:49 PM Author: cobalt halford corner then eliminate or alter the rule instead of adding subjectivity to it's enforcement (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113231) |
|
Date: July 18th, 2025 9:05 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund that would be the alteration, that you cannot improve the lie, fouls in an nba game are subjective, this isn't a real objection (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113249) |

Date: July 18th, 2025 9:11 PM Author: cobalt halford corner how about we just keep it as it is and players don't place their club near objects that may disturb the ball? because that's whats actually going to happen. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113269) |

Date: July 18th, 2025 9:16 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund in rough that deep just addressing the ball presents a pretty high risk of moving something, do you really think anybody can tap a few blades of grass and therby improve their lie rather than knock the ball down further into the rough? You're essentially taking a bad bet, 90% of the time enforcing this rule as it stands is making the game worse and potentially ruining an entire tournament, can you imagine if that was the last hole at a major? It would make the entire thing have an asterisk mark forever (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5751967&forum_id=2)#49113282) |

Date: July 18th, 2025 7:53 PM Author: Alcoholic trust fund players will often ask for rulings on what relief they can take where the official must in real time assess whether some random object can be moved of if they are close enough to a sprinkler etc no reason an official can't look at the ball and say it has not been improved |
