Ok.  Credit where it's due.  I've gotta commend Fox on their camera work following Paulina walking with DJ to the scorer's tent...

To be fair, would it really feel right if DJ won a major without some sort of rules snafu? ;-)

As much as I bitch about Fox, I do like Steve Flesch's take.

Tend to agree.  I've been pleasantly surprised by the quality of their overall coverage, but just don't care for Joe Buck.  He just doesn't strike me as knowledgeable enough about golf...

I dislike Joe Buck. Period. Never ever have liked him. Wow, DJ not known for clutch putting just made a huge one on 16

Who was it that wanted Grace to make a birdie for the cart?  He's -1 through 71.

After the latest viewing of the close up video I think he shouldn't be penalized.

Therefore, in tandem with that, I'm of the opinion that the USGA is (or already has) screwing this up.

Hopwfully DJ wins by a couple to make it a moot point.

Do you know the rule? You don't have to touch the ball to have caused it to move. Altering wind patterns can cause it to move.

I love DJ hitting driver on 17. He was about 5 feet short of a perfect shot, but still missed it where he needed to.

Kind of my point earlier. Make a ruling and move on.
