HAHA since you know soooo much about golf let's play for $100 a hole.

Wow.....Johnson with a terrible tee shot on the 18th. Good chance we get a Watson/Kaymer playoff.

Johnson will have a good lie with the trampled grass. I doubt he does worse than a bogey.

Whats funny is as I saw him doing it I thought it was weird he was grounding his club but thought nothing of it really. That would suck bad if he is eliminated from the playoff for it. Just imagine had he made that put how much worse it would have been to tell him he is not the champ and not in the playoff.

HOW THE FUCK can you not consider that a waste bunker if you're gonna have people stand in it?

He got screwed if he got ruled against.

I don't think there is any way they can tell him that is a bunker and not a waste area.

It's a bunker but it's not a sand bunker when you have people standing in it.

It's a waste bunker.

That would have been epic had he made the putt and thought he had won.

maybe not normally but u cant have people standing in sand bunkers. If that's the case then Whistling Straits needs to lose the PGA permanantly.

This. If they consider it not waste, how in the fuck can you have the gallery in it?

The guys on the internet feed said there were memo's about the fairway bunkers ect prior to the tourny. His caddy should have picked up on it or warned him. I agree it should not be a bunker but he should have known.

I hope Dustin doesn't take the high road and instead talks mad shit about Finchem and the PGA of America because of this. It's bullshit that the marshalls would have people standing in a bunker with him and around him like that.

Feel bad for Johnson, and also the winner - their thunder has just been stolen.

Listening to this rules official, Whistling Straights can't handle a major championship.

Regardless of DJ's ruling, it is still BS because if there was no camera, he wouldn't have got the penalty, how many other guys may have done it when the camera wasn't around? How can you use video replays if you don't have video of every shot?

Whistling Straights needs to lose the PGA, plain and simple.
