    I’ve always used the foot wedge rule, basically if you’re taking relief, you can use your foot wedge, and kick that sumbitch back in the rough.

      You would be surprised how clean you can hit it off the path, if he clubbed down it it would have been a great shot. I know what you mean as a lot of people yell that to me (I am small time, not big crowds) and they have no clue what is going on.

      Yeah! That's the issue, the rules can't be played realistically by the rest of us for that exact reason. This is nonsense, and I think he could have gotten a better result if he hadn't listened, going right was going to be better, especially since the second puddle was a new puddle. He could have potentially gotten the path relief on the right

    These PGA guys are no doubt elite talents, but there are probably hundreds of guys not on tour who are just as skilled. What makes the tour guys truly special are moments like these. My goodness ...hitting a shot off a gravel path, under a branch with a sea of faces staring at you, any of which you could potentially kill with an errant shot - all that after a dizzying rules discussion and the clock already ticking away. Now that is pressure. Amazing.

      Benjamin Lee under the rules of golf, when taking relief you use a club length which is the longest club excluding the putter to mark the drop zone. You need to use the club that you Will be using for the shot to make a reasonable stance and swing if the cart path or water was not there to see where the nearest point of relief.

    What happened to "play the ball where it lies"? Holy crap. Golf has the weirdest rules of any sport. If they had taken any longer the puddles would be a non-factor via evaporation.

      'Play the ball where it lies' is only available in certain circumstances. In this circumstance, he was in casual water and then cart path relief.

      Yeah, he's saying that is why golf has weird rules. Because the statement, play the ball where it lies, makes it seem like a general rule for the entire game. It should then say, play the ball where it lies* not all the time though. lol

      it didn't count as a stroke that was a free drop

      does not count as a stroke. it is called casual water and you get a free drop. water hazards are different to puddles/casual water
