Perfect, lets do idea number one, let him sign his card, then we'll have to DQ him and cost DJ about $500,000.00. Makes good sense.

#2 is exactly how it was handled, good job there, where is the quibbling and spin?

I agree with Dodger, very tough ruling, but it is what it is. The officials had no choice but to apply the penalty.

Well....

The "special/local" rules was handed out at beginning of the tournament so the ruling, AFTER the hole was played, was/is correct.

Although, and based on what I have thought was general,

- Don´t the last groupings in majors have a referee following in each pairings?
- If so, should he/she not had talked and pointed out, as a reminder, that this was a bunker?

Think what reactions we could have had if he had made the birdieputt.
