2 Rules That Need To Be Enforced On Tour


Recommended Posts

40 seconds start when you arrive at your ball, if you're the 1st one to go or after the guy behind you hit his/her shot, clock starts. Doesn't matter what tournament or what position you're in, if you're in tough spot, then tough luck, don't go there in the 1st place, that's part of the punishment for hitting horrible shot.

Need this enforced badly.

Go watch the feherty episode from Monday with langer. He demonstrates what he does and it isn’t anchoring.

I just watched it. Eh. After his technique was publicly criticized, what else would he say? Regardless, he shouldn’t be allowed to keep his hand so close to his chest that at best you can’t tell if it is touching, and at worst you can see it’s touching

Considering he explained what he’s doing is what he has done since the ban for anchoring was put in place he’s sating what he has been doing and it doesn’t sound like the criticism or questioning bothers him since he’s been cleared by the tour as not anchoring. The rule doesn’t state how far away it has to be from the chest as long as it’s not anchored to it.

When you are driving on the highway are you the guy in the left lane driving 55 in a 65 zone? So you do not give the impression of speeding? It is his job to make as many putts as possible while obeying the rules. And he does that.

He is making a mockery of the rules and the spirit of the game. He should be making sure there is no contact whatsoever with his chest, his shirt, nothing, and that it is apparent to all.

You have an axe to grind with him...did he steal your lunch money or something?

The only thing that matters is that he is making a stroke according to the rules and the tour has confirmed this so he’s good. You don’t like the way it looks don’t watch but to say he is making a mockery is a joke.

My thought on range finders is that it will be another thing the pros and caddies fumble with. Would it kill me if they were allowed? Of course not, but DMDs are not going to help the tours' slow players speeding up. The slow play "problem" on tour has little to do with getting yardages.

Tell us what problem you are seeking to solve? The ruling bodies solved their "problem" with Rule 10. Players and golf administrators all get it and are fully compliant. Then there's you.

Knowledge of the Rules is part of the applied skill set which a player must use to play competitive golf.

Do you not know that it was other players complaining about it?

I have not heard of any of his FC's (in his group) or markers confronting him on it, nor have I heard of any of his FC's or markers bringing it to the Rules officials attention. If they have, I wouldn't mind hearing about it.

Agreed.

 

Even once they know an exact yardage, there's still lots of time spent talking and thinking about where they want the ball to land (not in the cup, lol) how much spin or release they want, what the wind is doing, air temps/humidity/altitude effect on the shot...

 

Most of the "problem" that a DMD would solve is in situations like we just saw where DeChambeau walked 70 yards up to the green and back. That only happens a couple of times in a tournament, and costs maybe a minute. It's not much of the problem, although it looks awful when it happens.

They had doubts, he showed them what he was doing, no more doubts and no cheating, so only you are left doubting his integrity and saying he is making a mockery of the game.

Considering it’s not a topic of discussion on tour or golf channel or any of the mentioned players raising the issue to the rules committee it’s a safe bet their concerns were addressed and unlike you they’ve moved on

He has said many times that he anchors during the practice stroke to give him the feel he wants. He then moves that top hand away from his chest slightly.

He put the shaft on his chest then showed how the shaft is not on his chest because his thumb is between the shaft and his chest. And he visibly is touching his chest. The USGA and R&A don’t act because they don’t want to get sued by the equipment manufacturers. They would prefer to avoid the publicity of having to act on this.

That’s it. They are tired of accusing him and the tour not doing anything.
