That’s a free drop.

Rules official certainly took into account the lie and what an advantage Brooks would get if he got the drop. If there was any chance he would hit the immoveable obstruction he should get relief and clearly he swung into that area.

If you watch the full exchange, even Sergio Garcia agreed with Koepka and Berger, this video doesn't show that. There's another video of the whole exchange on youtube.

The Professional, however, will take advantage of whatever rule he can push to the most extreme limits. Not all of them, but MANY of them. And they will take that advantage and benefit from it almost every time.

There was an imbedded water drain pipe about 3 inches in front of the ball in the direction he would have had to swing to advance the ball towards the green. Rule 16.1b permits relief from such abnormal course impediments in that situation. Even Sergio Garcia, his competitor in that match, came over and looked at it and thought he should have been given relief due to possible injury on a swing. Ref was wrong and was a clown for not permitting it. Maybe you should look at the rules, and you would understand what he was asking for. Apparently though that was expecting too much of you and the other clueless clowns, who liked your post. 🙂

It's not so much that it is a difficult lie. It's the fact that there is a drainage pipe sticking out of the ground a couple of inches ahead of where the ball lies, and Brooks argues that he's going to hit it in his followthrough. Now obviously from that lie, anyone would attempt to get a free relief, and a chance to drop it in the stort stuff, and if the drain does indeed interfere with his intended swing, he can get free relief. This video only shows the interaction with the senior referee, denying him relief, but another ref had just denied him relief before, and then granted Brooks and Daniel a second opinion. Maybe Brooks did end up glancing the pipe. Maybe it was deliberate to prove a point, but thats just speculations. Regardless - when 2 referees have said no, it's a no.

Take your lumps play sideways

Brooks was actually correct in this case. Most golfers don't hit down on the golf ball like a tour pro does. Brooks' attack angle is 5 to 6 degrees on a normal shot. That makes his low point maybe 4 to 5 inches in front of the ball. He could easily have injured himself.

There's a difference between the ruling on a natural obstruction and unnatural obstruction. If you assume what was in front of Brooks was something like a concrete water fountain and it was in his follow-through, he would be allowed to move the ball without penalty. The referee was contending that Brooks' natural follow through would not have hit that drain area. Brooks' contention was that it was and if you watch the swing he was still making contact with the ground past that drain area.

I’m not sure what was going on here. Why did Brooksy want relief ?

At 1:15 you can see where Brooks is pointing .. a couple inches to the golfer's right of the little piece of white paper (or whatever it is) and the swing is at 3:40 .. It's hard to tell exactly from the camera angle so decide for yourself but I'm inclined to side with the refs on this one.

@rcg9573

Жыл бұрын

No. There was an imbedded water drain in the ground a few inches in front of his ball directly in his swing path to hit the ball towards the green. Rule 16.1b permits relief from such abnormal impediments to prevent injury to a player on his follow through (really a rule that impacts players, who take their divot on an iron shot after the ball just as Koepka and all other pros do). That is what he wanted relief from because he knew his follow through divot might hit that drain and injure himself. Sergio Garcia, his competitor in that match, came over and looked at it and even he nodded and said he thought he should have been given relief. The washout they were talking about was the washout from the water drain, and they were asking the ref to take a look at it and how close his ball was to the drain's edge. The ref tried to claim that because of the topography of where the ball lied there was no chance his follow through would hit the drain, but even Garcia did not think that was true.

If that was Baby Bryson they would of gave him the drop
