    Ernie's 1st hole shot count is now scored as a 9, instead of a 10.

    That was unreal. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that on Sportsnet....never seen anything like that in pro golf, or pro sports even. Hell, I'VE never done something like that~~

    He's a hack. I once 8 putted the first hole at the Whiteface GC in Lake Placid in the last group of a men's invitational. It's easy to do.

    I'm not sure I've ever even 5-putted, but I sure have gotten off the tracks every other possible way. Still...2 feet away, and it's not like the ball rolled all the way off the green or anything. Golf is an amazing game that way...

    This seems crazy to most people because they don't play a lot of tournament golf, and would probably would pick up after missing the 3rd. I bet most would pick up after missing the second. There is no way, in a casual round, anyone would continue to putt through that situation.

    I think the bigger point here is that this is the first real impact of the long putter rule change.
