During the 3rd round of The Open 2021, Colin Morikawa's 2nd shot on the 5th hole should have seen a penalty in my opinion. His caddie clearly ducks behind him when he had already taken his stance, to check his alignment. And then quickly moved away. But it was too late, he had already checked to see if  he was lined up correctly, and Colin didn't change his stance and just went ahead and hit. Penalty or not?

Without video, nobody's really going to be able to say here.

Not sure what you’re talking about: 

at 3:02…..the shot where he’s off balance with a bad lie. He clearly hits his shot with his caddie out of the line completely.

and we got less than 4 seconds to show anything pre-shot. I didn't see this live, but you can't take this highlight reel and pretend that it is the broadcast that OP saw.

    • Day 215: just some mirror work. Worked on earlier wrist hinge in the backswing. 
    • Top two choices: Hide & Seek: Wallet With Hidden Pocket | Bellroy This billfold’s classic good looks and slim profile hide a clever secret – a concealed section inside that keeps extra bills, cards or coins out of sight. Ridge Wallet - Forged Carbon The strong, slim, and sustainable ridge wallet is now available as forged carbon wallet. The anodized aluminum plating lets you enjoy a scratch-resistant surface.

    • Day 142 - 2025-02-19 Had 45 minutes after some GEARS lessons and before a junior. Got some good work in.
    • He wasn't a bad guy. And he was just trying to get out there and get some fresh air and exercise. He ended up liking the new cane a lot, because in addition to not making pock marks on the greens, it also stood up by itself. He didn't have to hand it to somebody to hold while he hit his shot. Or lean it against the cart. It would just stand up by itself. ... Kind of like those stand up putters. ... 🤣
    • Sounds like you guys came up with a great solution.
