Can someone explain what happened? The guy in pink shirt hit the ball into the water but what's the debate about?

[@ryandavies6609]

@@rizz2pro There was no footage available at the time, and they were trying to figure out where the ball landed in the water to take a drop closest to it. Berger was trying to suggest that his ball entered the water based on his intention to hit a fade. He actually hit it more or less straight, and so the point of entry was further back than what he was trying to suggest. Holland and Dhamer are pointing that out and he doesn't like it.

Sungjae Im’s shot just about sums up how much luck plays into golf

[@JeffSmith-eq3kc]

I was playing in the Maryland Open many years ago when my tee shot ended up between two OB stakes that were like 25 yards apart. Both of my playing partners were telling me the ball was OB but i was pretty darn sure it was outside the line although it was very close. Ended up with a rules official and a ball of yarn. Tied off to one OB post and pulled it tight to the next one. My ball was no more than two inches on the good side of the string. I ended up with a PW into the green from there instead of having to play a pretty terrible provisional ball id hit. Saved me at least 2 shots and probably 3.

[@elscruffomcscruffy8371]

Why did RM get to move hos ball like 5 metres to the left of the vehicle? I thought a drop was a club length away? Or why not move the vehicle if the ball is underneath it???

[@JD102790]

Same rule as getting relief from a scoreboard thats temporary. Its an unmovable obstruction (ironic being that its a car), so he can get complete relief from the car, including his line of play.

[@flurrries]

What’s happening on the hovland and Berger thing?

[@ian-j]

When a ball is hit into the water, you have to drop in the designated relief area, or you can drop in line with where your ball crossed the water. Berger claimed his ball crossed the water much closer to the hole than what Hovland and dahmen said.

[@elnino4398]

0:22 I wonder if he is in a little depression from Iraq

[@HRHooChicken]

What are the rules for the first clip, where your ball is hampered by the cart path (or any man made path) but not actually on it?

[@the3picpr0_66]

I believe you usually play it, unless like in the first clip, you determine it is an unmovable obstacle, you would then take relief.

[@Aidan-fd2tn]

You can take oath relief if you are on the path or if you would be standing on the path. So even though his ball wasn’t on the path, he got free relief since he would have to stand on the path to hit the ball

[@XjrbxcX]

at 6:14 the player doesn't have a choice but to take a drop. Rules state you can't hit off a wrong green. Free drop at nearest point of relief no closer to the hole

@@JeffSmith-eq3kc sure but the most u r gna do on ur own green is a chippy bounce shot, taking minimal divot if at all. from the wrong green, you are looking at anything from a lob wedge to a driver off the deck, so theres no controlling that

[@bullveigh2526]

Ball collisions on the green should be fair game , you’d win some and and be SOL on others.

[@Basetornado]

Used to be the rule. You weren't allowed to move balls blocking your line to the cup, if you hit them, your opponent could play it from where it ended up or from where it started. If you accidently knocked your opponents ball in, it counted. Changed in 1952.

I would have thought the entire ball has to be in the hazard for you to not get relief. Kinda like OB. I wonder if PGA will make exceptions when immovable obstructions and penalty areas intermingle.

It was a bad job of marking by the officiating crew, should be a little cut out in the margin for the hazard so there was no way that that situation would happen in the first place. If that Red line marking the hazard wasn't there he would've got relief from the sprinkler head.
