      No grey area here. After 10 seconds, it doesn't matter if the ball is still moving (even if it is). You can hit the moving ball without penalty after the 10 seconds because at the 10 second mark it is considered "not holed".

      Not a grey area but here's the problem. They implement this rule here to save what 15-20 seconds? Costs him a shot. Yet, they let Bryson take 300+ seconds to hit an 8 foot putt but they refuse to implement the slow play rules at all. They both cost the player the same 1 shot, yet Si Woo loses his and Bryson doesn't.

    • @ghoneycutter
      @ghoneycutter 3 года назад +172

      @@patrickfullsail2011 you can't mark a moving golf ball though, correct? The group all agreed in real time the ball was still moving. This is the problem. Not only the player, but his caddy as well as another player and that player's caddy, agreed the ball was still moving. If this is the case, marking would result in a penalty, as the ball is considered to be moving. The ball, therefore, should be allowed to continue to move until it ceases to move, in this case into the cup. The amount of movement should not be considered as that is relative, some would argue for shorter times of movement to be allowed for their opponents and more time for themselves. The 10 second rule should be void in circumstances where the group agrees it is still moving, so long as it is not influenced, as the 10 second rule is to be used for a ball that is confirmed to be at rest and then moves afterwards without the player of the ball causing it to move, such as an animal, a gust of wind, or another player's ball, for example.

If you place an object partially over an edge it will slowly fall due to gravity or eventually settle. You could argue that the wind or the vibrations of the people walking aided in the ball falling in. However the fact that the golfer was adamant that the ball stayed in motion, means that the most plausible anwser is that the ball fell in due to gravity and the continued momentum of the ball.

      Do you understand how photosynthesis works? Now, I’m not saying that the effect will always work because it depends on where the ball is located, the direction of the grass, temperature, humidity, but it can work.

      Photosynthesis is the process of turning carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates (sugar) and oxygen. This is the plants feeding and respiration process.
      The stiffness of the grass blade is due to something called *turgor pressure,* which is essentially the water pressure in the leaf blade. So, no, the very improbable insignificant change in photosynthesis would not effect the stiffness of the grass blades - I would know, my degree is in turf management.
      However, the shade MAY cause a change in temperature, which in turn would cause the air to move (wind)... But this is also highly unlikely to be significant.

      @MH3GL 3 года назад +1

      @@Zerpersande water movement in plants is directly tied to water pressure in the surrounding environment (water always moves from an area of higher pressure to lower pressure until balance is achieved). So, turgor (water) pressure within the plant is directly dependent upon the amount of plant available water in the soil (and air). As water moves downward in the soil profile due to gravity, and water is lost from the soil and plant due to evaporation and transpiration, the plant will lose turgidity. After a rain event or irrigation, the water potential in the soil increases, and the turgidity should rise again as well, provided the water is available to the plant.

    The reason a rule like this is implemented is because if a ball sits there long enough, it has the possibility of moving (by perhaps a gust of wind). You can't just look at it all day because it's moving micro-fractions and eventually falls in. It's clearly not naturally rolling to go in the hole, so a time limit has to be put in place. 10 seconds might be a little too short, but overall I agree with this ruling. Pretty awesome of Kuchar to support his fellow competitor, though.

      @apaulmcdonough2170 3 года назад

      First of all the Ball must be *OVERHANGING the Hole.*
      *Rule 13.3a*
      The 10 Seconds Start when you reach the Ball and Hole. You are allowed a "reasonable amount of time to reach the Hole", since No One can predetermine where the Ball originally was and what that Distance might be.
      Once the final 10 Seconds has expired *that Stroke is now Over and Complete.* Tap in for One More Stroke. If the Ball Falls In before you make the required Tap In, you are Penalized One Stroke.
      Either way, it means *One More Stroke* to the Score for the Hole.

    A correct decision. A physicist would say that the ball never ceases to move, which can be demonstrated depending on how minute an examination of it is carried out. I appreciate that the rules are intended to cover only a visibly moving ball, but that too is ambiguous as it can depend on one's perspective and acuity of eyesight. The effect of wind can also never be ruled out as to why a ball appears to be moving. The 10-second rule seems a good way to get over these anomalies.

    Kudos to Kuchar for supporting SWK's birdie claim. I think this was a very harsh interpretation of the rules, especially as Kuchar was waiting for his opponent's ball to stop moving before playing his shot.

  • @captaindeadhead9187
    @captaindeadhead9187 3 года назад +1

    For anyone who knows it is the best trick for a hanging ball, especially a ball that was this close on the lip of the hole. Get your shadow on the ball and surrounding area of the cup. The lack of direct sunlight makes the blades of the grass lay or fall down which will set the hanging ball into the hole. Any ball that is vulnerable to falling in will usually fall in a 10 to 15 second period.
    When Kucher's caddie set the shadow on the ball I was impressed. However, he removed himself and the shadow with him. I believe if the caddie's shadow stayed on the ball that it would have fallen much sooner.
    The hidden secret is to get over the ball and fill in the area around the ball and hole with shadow to present as much darkness as possible which will speed up the effect. All within the rules.

    Rule is correct the player reached the hole and had 10 seconds to determine if the ball would drop or not.... Even if it is moving...
    It is a specific rule for over hangs such as this and "moving" refers to the very slow motion they observed. Basically once the player reached the hole to watch the ball he has 10 seconds to either have it drop or add a stroke whether it fell at 11 seconds or 20 seconds. Once beyond 10 seconds that putt is considered ended.

    The rule is in place to keep the game moving. You can’t just stand there holding up people playing behind you because you think the ball might still drop. So even though the ball was moving, after 10 seconds is up it is declared stationary.

    I actually I'm pretty sure that the rules official is correct on this one. Even though you all might think it's still moving and it very well could have been just barely still moving, you still only have that reasonable amount of time, and then about 10 more seconds once you arrive to the ball before you have to tap it in. They clearly went at least 30 seconds or more. Therefore see extra show should be added
