I'm with the old golfer in this being a crappy rule. It's the only sport that watches video and changes the outcome the next day. If I saw

goaltending in the Knicks game or that someone missed a base while running during a baseball game would they go back and change the outcome?

I understand he kind of broke the rule but if they don't catch it before he signs his card it's too bad and he gets to keep the error.

oh no, it's always totally on the player to sign a completely accurate card and to DQ themselves even if it's brought to their attention afterward -- nm - charlie Apr 13, 07:00 5
- How are you the #1 playing in the world of your sport and not know the rules. You can't use that defense in a court of law. And there have been cases - Valar Morghulis Apr 13, 07:10
- I don't even know why I care. Just seems very wrong to watch video and then penalize someone. Where were the officials during the match? Why - Krusty Apr 13, 07:03 3
  - He should have asked an official his options.Happens every week so the player has his ass covered. -- nm - Zunk Xometimes Apr 13, 07:35
  - it's the code of golf. you are the first rules official yourself. even if nobody else saw a violation, it's your duty to enforce it on yourself -- nm - charlie Apr 13, 07:05 1
