Taking the practice strokes, or even standing near the ball, could very well have caused it to move. But he said it wasn't him, and his playing partner and referee agreed, that should have been the end of it. He certainly didn't intentionally cause it, and he gained no advantage from the ball rolling an eight of an inch away from the hole, so the rule itself is dumb as well IMO. Especially on greens with that much slope and speed; there were several other incidents of balls moving after they'd been marked and replaced but not yet addressed. His drive on 12 right after they told him the situation was a thing of beauty though. I think it was the highest swing speed, ball speed, and carry that I saw during the entire tournament. And to birdie 18 when almost nobody else did on Sunday was the perfect ending.

So now even golf allows video replay officials to be stars of the show to the exclusion of the athletes. Brilliant. Very healthy sporting climate we live in.

Remember that it was Jim Nantz who called the Rules Committee for Tiger's penalty at the Masters a few years ago.

Yeah, Brandel Chamblee probably told him to, all I can remember from that poo poo was him saying over and over how Tiger ruined the integrity of the tournament and should WD himself. Shut the gently caress up Nantz and shut the gently caress up Chamblee!

Jim Nantz is far and away the whitest motherfucker in sports broadcasting, which basically makes him perfect to call the Masters.
