Dope Tech Episode 2

<<@jimmyculp8756 says : Never heard of her?>> <<@malcolmexistential306 says : This was not a good look for the LPGA, at worst there should have been a shot or 2 penalty. The LPGA also conveniently didn’t disclose how much time beyond the 3 minute time limit.>> <<@AJohnston-ju8ej says : What you failed to mention was that Tom Abbott was with the group. He was in the scoring area when they were signing the card. He chose to wait until after the scorecard was signed to alert LPGA officials that he thought she took too long, knowing that it would result in a DQ. He is a classless bum that all LPGA players should avoid.>> <<@roscocostco8586 says : Miss Clairol is fullashit.>> <<@TeezerDriz says : Nothing preventing the caddie carrying a count down electronic timer that beeps or any wrist watch with a stopwatch function. Take responsibility for your own search time.>> <<@RobjS-y8o says : Rough like that should not be within 15 yards of the green. And the rough should be cut to a reasonable height so at least a ball can be found within 3 minutes.>> <<@applegreen4118 says : I wonder what would have happened if this happened to Tiger Woods ?>> <<@petsquirrelable says : Put grass like that right next to the green and only give them 3 minutes to find it? Not a fair setup. Got to change the rule>> <<@nongienong6900 says : This is ridiculous, the rule official was right there and did nothing to prevent this mistake.>> <<@jacplanespotting314 says : So (1) when does the three minutes start? and......(2) a player just has to find and identify the ball within the time limit, correct?>> <<@jacplanespotting314 says : are we implying that a player must (1) starting self timing themselves (and watch the clock) and (2) look for the ball, simultaneously?>> <<@rickysilver1479 says : what's the point of officials if they make their rulings after the round has been completed? Next time, Nasa should ask for a ruling any time her ball is not obviously in play. Make the official tell her where to play the ball and what the stroke penalty is.>> <<@ericjencson9489 says : This is stupid. Each group in a professional tournament should have a referee. That referee should have a stop watch and they should call time is up when 3 minutes runs out. If you are going to DQ someone over this, then there needs to be a monitor with each group to handle all rules issues.>> <<@gamelife3679 says : Oh.. thats not so good to see... Korean don't cheat like Japanese. Hataoka should learn more about the rules.>> <<@ME-nk2og says : lame rule, i get it....should just make it a 2 stroke penalty and move on.>> <<@yamatan1 says : How did the post round ruling started anyway? I guess LPGA is going to be busy reviewing videos everyday now on.>> <<@spennce says : If they had to use video review I think this is unfair. When no cameras are on guaranteed players are sometimes taking over 3 minutes. I guess a caddie should pull out his phone and start a timer but then what do they do at the Master's. Smartphones aren't allowed.>> <<@spennce says : Lesson for all professional golfers. If spotters are searching walk really slow getting to your ball.>> <<@rogerwhite7719 says : Why did no one tell her before she signed?>> <<@gzman1 says : time clock with a buzzer?>> <<@Uxbridgian says : Your officiating is poor. You made three errors . First an official that was present should have told her that her time was up. Second you did not advise her that she was about to sign an incorrect score card. You could have told her that she needed to add a penalty stroke. Third error is using a video review after the fact. This is a game of honour and the player did nothing intentional. Are you going to rewatch the entire match to see if someone else broke a rule? I find this disqualification completely uncalled for . I was at the US LPGA open in Lancaster Pennsylvania an official briefed a player against an immovable obstruction exactly how to take correct releif. It was not up to the player. The player listened to the officials instructions and followed them. The official should be the one to say the three minutes are up. How would the golfer know how long the officials had been looking for the ball before she walked up? This 3 minute rule should be timed by an official and if that is not the rule then it should be changed. 4:07>> <<@Noeau says : What is the purpose of a rules official if they are not going to inform the player of a possible rules violation on the spot especially something so subjective like a time limit! And then inform them after the fact that, oh by the way, you’re dq’d! And also they used video evidence after the fact to discover the rules violation. So that means players that are not stars or in contention don’t have to worry about being scrutinized by rules violations because they are not on tv to be second guessed. Sounds like players are treated differently and it’s not an equal playing field. Sounds like Nance telling the pga player in contention who was saying the tv drone was too close when trying to play his shot, to get used to it.>> <<@robertbranco1126 says : WTF ..Maybe cut the grass or buy some goats and this would not happen>> <<@oahujuniorgolfassociationc6656 says : All about the rules here but also about pointing out poor governance and rules officiating. Golfers take 3 minutes looking for a ball even when they aren’t really looking for a ball. The 5 minute rule was never administered by the second and even less should the 3 minute rule be. The point of this rule is to save time and improve pace of play. All this did was slow the pace of play. When we arrive at a ball—say for a competitor— I sometimes look at the clock but even then I’m giving major leeway because I don’t want to be like that. Whoever did this is like that. I agree if the rules official is there and suddenly for the first time in the history of golf they are going to care about a few seconds, maybe he should have to ask the player if it’s possible they went over time. Because otherwise the players are using their best judgment like any other judgment call. Super lame here. Embarrassing for the sport. The big takeaway here is the more they try to fix the more they mess them up.>> <<@Adrian-zw6sc says : The punishment does not fit the crime... if there was even a violation to begin with. When is video replay an acceptable means for officiating purposes, and when is it not? Other pro leagues have outlined criteria of when video replay can and cannot be used.>> <<@gungagalunga9040 says : I always start a clock. Even when playing alone.>> <<@billyburroo says : People start searching right after the ball lands nasa has no idea once she gets to where the ball was lost, only going by what spotters are telling her, if she starts searching in the wrong spot than the official following that group needs to approach her and say you now have three minutes to locate Ur ball than she or her caddie can start the clock even than the official should have started her clock and warned her that time was up, can u imagine this happening to Nelly Korda, i think not😅>> <<@alann5003 says : Yeah ultimately it's on Nasa to know the rules but a tour official was right there. She should have let Nasa know the time situation then inform her she has to go back. Something needs to change regarding official search timing and not say it's on the player to start a clock.>> <<@valtyger says : THIS PENALTY MUST BE RECALLED and RULE MUST BE CHANGED! What can 3 minutes do? Clock started by the time she arrived? There should be a Green Marshall. Though there was not field marshall nearby at first, but then an OFFICIAL CAME, STAYED AND ALLOWED for Nasa next shot. Why did't they instructed her? Japanese don't cheat like Korean!>>
