ole gray Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Personally I think there should be absolutely no allowance for TV viewers to call in what they consider as an infraction....

I don't think anybody should have the right to call in a rule infraction.. No matter right or wrong they should keep their opinion out of the tournament. Now did Susanne miss that putt on purpose?

silver & black Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 What a crock of s***! No wonder this game has detractors. Its petty s*** like this that keeps the "might be fan" from taking it serious. No other sport even considers a call in "do gooder". I can't even express how pissed off this has me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liberty Ball Markers Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Another complete and total fubar from the rules officials. Let's be realistic here - there are officials all over the place - they didn't, and her partner didn't notice at the time. That should be the end of it. Then to add 2 more strokes for signing scorecard THAT WAS CORRECT AT THE TIME IT WAS SIGNED is by far the most bogus load of horse s#it that I've ever seen...

jlew2144 Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 My problem is this. Rules are rules I get it, however allowing call ins when not everyone gets the same amount of camera time is where I have an issue. Lexi is popular and as such will get more air time than some of the other ladies on tour.

Jmikecpa Posted April 3, 2017 Share Posted April 3, 2017 Wish I had that kind of free time on my hands. Absolute disgrace and needs to end. The part that I think rubs me the wrong way the most is two shots for signing an incorrect scorecard. And people wonder why pros call a rules official in for any drop that they take.

ole gray Posted April 3, 2017 Author Share Posted April 3, 2017 Lexi obviously moved the ball a bit off line however that is not the issue. Did she intentionally move it? I don't think so.... She could have moved the ball a foot left or right and it wouldn't make a difference because no one sitting at home should be allowed to be a rules ref!.. Just saying.

That would be up to the player's integrity and not some pecker head at home to make that determination. There should never be a call made from a non official that determines a major championship. She certainly does not look guilty and her composure/body language looks like anything other than a cheater. Go Lexi --- Get er done!!!

Don't disagree with this at all. Rules are rules..the problem I've got is 1. How much air time did Lexi get compared to other golfers 2. 2 stroke for something that occurred 24 hours earlier..whats the limit for time at which you can be assessed a penalty? A day, a week, A month? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using MyGolfSpy mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
