Actually I don't think that he incurred more than just a one stroke penalty for causing his ball at rest to move. As long as he replaced it before holing out, it's just a one stroke penalty. It looks funny as hell, but since it's all part of the same action, the fact that the ball hit him shouldn't matter. Under the rules he did not deflect a ball in motion because it was not moving due to a stroke.

Definitely a moment of supreme embarrassment for a player of his stature.
