What was the ruling?

The person is allowed to walk in any direction for one minute.

McIlroy has to remain ion the tee, close his eyes and then find the spectator within 3 minutes.

After that, Rory ha to touch him on the shoulder and retrieve the ball before dropping it.

Failure to find the spectator within the 3 minutes results in DQ.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

Are you sure??  I don't think that is accurate at all.  I'm pretty sure that once he retrieves the ball within the allotted time limit, and after he touches him on the shoulder, he is allowed to place the ball.

Of course, that is if he touches his right shoulder.  Obviously, if he touches his left shoulder, then you are correct and he has to drop.

LOL, it was pretty hilarious.

When the Rules Official" asked the spectator if he had moved,

Rory commented " Yes, he was standing out here and pointed towards the fairway"

The ruling - Rory was able to take a drop at the location which the ball came to rest.

Notice in the video, the Rules Official point to the ground at which Rory marked the spot by placing a tee at the location.

Rory at least was in good humor and gave the spectator a couple of handshakes.

Also funny was when the guy asked to keep the ball and the Rules Official commented "NO, he will need that one"

Rory could have autographed a glove and given one to the guy, but probably was caught up in the moment of playing the hole.

O'well

Wrong.. Only allowed to place if playing in Florida.
