However, I would say that it's karma for the bullshit he pulled off on 10. He claimed line of sight relief and ended up with a perfect lie when he was deep in the rough when he obviously didn't need it, because he flew the ball right over the tower.
If he ends up getting penalized, it will have been deserved, because hitting that shot on 10 after that ruling was a cheesedick move.
Also:
The USGA asked Dustin Johnson what else could have caused his ball to move on the 5th green. Johnson did not give an answer to that which is why after his round, the USGA will take DJ to watch the video and decide if he gets a one shot penalty.

What Johnson did was perfectly within the rules and his rights. May be a stupid rules but he would be an idiot not to use it in that situation.
