I don't like it, don't get me wrong. I've been pulling for the next great, but if you watch the film, he grounded, paused, motioned, and then reset to hit.
He mentally screwed himself yet again.
Bubba fell apart as well. No on wants to e the next guy.
I do. but then again, I can't drive from the course to the hotel without a tree hitting my car.
I agree that it is his and his caddys fault but I personally don't think that should be considered a bunker, the gallery was able to walk through it all week. I'm sorry that just isn't right
In regard to the video, I ask you to watch it again. He set up, paused, motioned, and then reset to hit like you said but when watching it in real time (live) the motioned part was because a spectator created a gap where the light was coming through. He motioned and asked the group to close the gap so that it was all shadow. The video confirms that the motion wasnt an acknowledgment of grounding but of getting the spectators to stand together to block the light.
I wanted Bubba to win even before this but I was disgusted at how this went down. This is one of those guys that is going to win a ton of tournaments for a long time to come and feel like he was robbed of a great opportunity.
Also I completely agree that throughout the 4 rounds I'm sure tons of guys did the same thing, thinking the same thing but because of the magnification of the situation its just a bit crazy.
