  1. Good. Marking on a club gives an unfair advantage. I drew a smiley face on my driver once and hit a hole in one on the second green from the first tee. Don’t worry though, I gave myself a 30 stroke penalty and washed off the marking.

  2. This rule is bullshit and shouldn’t exist, but if it has to be there then it should come with penalty strokes assessed, similar to the way having too many clubs in the bag is enforced.

  3. We mark our golf balls ? Isn't that our equipment?? …..whose the rat is what I wanna know ?

  4. what would be awesome, is that Leftist demos had to follow rules, instead of making them up as they go along

  5. You can't become like a Tiger if choose to remain a cheetah.😂😂😂
    Glad he got caught, how shameful. Sponsors should drop him. Make it hurt where it counts 🤑 Teach these boys a lesson so they don't even think about cheating again.

  6. I bet Reed painted Hideki's club head before the round and then tattled on him to the official. What a chump Patty is.

  7. I think Matsuyama was using this three wood on the practice range perhaps to improve his impact and accuracy but then either he or the caddie put the wrong 3 wood in the bag before the official round started. Probably a honest mistake

  8. im just so curious about this…
    ive definitely hit my ball right after putting sharpie markings on it and the ink transfered to the face of my club… totally unintentional.would that be a rules infraction even if it wasnt intended as a cheat?

  9. I like how everyone acts like Moses came down a mountain with golf rules etched on a tablet when they are 100% arbitrary.

    He was shooting 4 over by the time the dq came. Common sense would dictate, that you just make him change the club. I also love that there is no appeal process, for any of it. It is just up to the discretion of five or six 60+ years old.
    The rules official that told him he was DQ made sure to be real somber and act he was best friends with Matsuyama in the post interview. Yet his old buddy never bothered to physically inspect the clubs.

  10. I don’t think a lot of people here understood why he was penalized. It’s was not a regular marking from play. It was the sprayed on foot spray etc that players use during practice to see where they are making impact. He forgot to wipe it off. Rules are rules. He handled it like a champ. Just saying most people do look at their club face before hitting. He just didn’t notice it.

  11. This is why so many PGA golfers are leaving and going to play overseas. PGA is getting ridiculous.

  12. His club manufacturers now putting a white mark on the club that he will be using it next tournament.

  13. Easy to see why these guys are signing up to the LiV 🤣🤣
    Playing with Reed and getting this … yes pga rules are racist

  14. Dustin Johnson and Phil Mickelson are going to quit the PGA tour because of the PGA's unethical monopoly to join the Saudi Arabia backed golf tour? Are you kidding me? In addition to the Saudi's backing 911, Mohammed bin Salman murdered, dismembered, and put Jamal Khashoggi through a meat grinder but somehow backing this tyrannical regime is better than the PGA? This is disgusting. They both have made millions upon millions of dollars from the PGA. Phil squandered much of his money from gambling. Who's fault is that? Most sports can't touch the kind of money that is in golf. Fine, take issue with the PGA but their behavior, putting greed above good is disgusting. Is this what they teach their children? Where the hell is their humanity?

  15. PGA is a thing of the past. Players have no rights and are treated like servants, that is why they are going to the new league.
