One more thing to hate about golf. That's fu cking re tarded.

As was noted on the Golf Channel, this is really unfair because most of the field isn't even on TV. The leaders are shown much more often than any of the other players. If this is to be allowed, then every shot, placement, etc. of every player must be shown on TV.
Probably some 30+ year old living in Mom's basement and can't get a date. I'm sure Lexi would like to meet him and let him know how much she appreciates his input into her career. Sad. Lots of the rules of golf make sense however most of them simply don't. |
you guys are missing the point. in golf the person that is most responsible for playing by the rules is the golfer. All this s*** about a TV viewer what other golfers do doesn't matter. it only matters what she did in the moment. She put the ball down clearly away from the marker. What I'm hearing from the golfer is that she does this all the time because she said she didn't notice. b*******. She knew where she put that ball down and she got penalized for it like she should have. These are the rules of golf, specifically championship tournament golf.

But the LPGA waited until 24 hours later and THEN they penalized her because some douchebag television viewer sent a ****ing email to the LPGA to bitch about it. And on top of that they penalized her ANOTHER two strokes for signing a scorecard that was 100% correct when she signed it. THAT is where this situation became the ultimate cluster****. She beat the field by 4 strokes in a major tournament and had the tournament stolen from her. The douchebag who sent the email undoubtedly shot a load in his pants over this. It's the highlight of his miserable life. Hopefully he will get AIDS and die. The PGA and the LPGA should just state flat out that they won't respond to rules infractions "detected" by television viewers. That would solve this problem immediately. |
Garbage "sport" (it's not one)
|
Who ever sent the email probably didn't have Lexi on their fantasy team or maybe they were related to one of the other players. It's a bogus call to be made almost 24 hrs later. IMO once the clock strikes midnight it should be too late to make such a call. That and every single shot of every single player goes under video review if they are going to allow replay to call penalties. Lexi got jobbed.

Nothing wrong with cheating at pro sports as long as you figure in the cost of getting caught on occasion.

I watch every tournament - mens, womens, college, etc. I was so pissed last night I turned it off in disgust.
What other sport allows a fan to post something - A FRICKING DAY LATER - and penalize them - IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FINAL ROUND OF A MAJOR! IT'S INSANE! She handled it way better than I could have. I would have stormed off the course and called my attorney. |

Lexi got ****ed, plain and simple, by a process that should never have merit in the first place. |

Cheating happens in every sport. Bad calls happen in every sport. But once the play is over - it's fricking over! If no official said anything after that hole was over, too bad. I can see penalizing/disqualifying for an incorrect scorecard. But if you had no clue your score was incorrect, it's not your fault. This whole thing is like me calling in today about a play I saw where Tom Brady stepped out of bounds during the Super Bowl and it wasn't called. Let's just change the outcome. So stupid. |
Any "sport" where having the ball moved that tiny amount anywhere on the field costs a penalty that severe is officially a joke.

You watch women's golf, so you must sleep well during the afternoon.
