Some guy at home with nothing better to do called Podge on this and he was subsequently DQ'ed after shooting a -7.
Harrington accidentally moved his ball a gnats hair on 7th green. Viewer called in. PH DQ'ed. Official reason - signed for the wrong score. The penalty for moving his ball - 2 shots. Harrington signed for a par 3, when he should have signed for a 5.
Tour referee Andy McPhee: "an email to a Euro Tour feedback website at 6pm last night."
Ridiculous rule.The naked eye of the golfer rather than a slo mo camera should be the judge in whether a ball moves or not.
Where do we stand on this? IMO if we followed every pro golfer for every hole of every round and analysed every shot, we would see a lot of rule infringements.
