At first I was appalled, but after thinking about it for a minute, it didn't really bother me. Golf is not really a "gentleman's game" in those shit conditions.

He explained it pretty logically after the round by saying he was taking the two stroke penalty because he knew the ball was going to roll off the green to to a very shitty lie...but I doubt that's what was actually happening in the moment.

Phil: 10 on hole #13 at US Open including the 2-shot penalty.

Sergio: 13 on hole #15 at Masters (five in the water).


Sergio: "Phil is good."

^^ I think he made it worse with his "toughen up" response to critics considering he skirted playing from a tough spot by exploiting a loophole in the rules.

Phil ain't gonna grovel to the critics. He called the USGA and offered to withdraw. What else are the critics looking for here? Hand written letters of apology?

And the rule is what it is. If someone thinks it should be an auto-DQ then get USGA to change it.

I think they are going to change it from what David Faye said.
