@michaelfarriertwist: This is an interesting one! In my opinion he’s gained no advantage so shouldn’t get a penalty but technically….🤷♂️👀 #golf #golfrules
I think he moved it himself to be honest. as it was unintentional it can be put back with no penalty. he then marked it to change the ball rotation to show the line. I honestly don't think he cheated, it happens, and he gave himself no advantage

its a technicality and maybe a violation of the rules, but it's far from "cheating"

he moved it an inch, this is why people think golf is stupid, hardly cheating is it, what advantage has he gained by moving it less than an inch, get on with your day

some golf rules need to relooked at. some of them are a bit ridiculous

I believe you have a good point. but i dont think he thinks he did anything wrong so he didn't acknowledge it.

you don't need to mark ball you need to just place back to exact spot

This is simply a case of a player thinking he’s doing the right thing although he is actually wrong - he’s just made a small mistake for which he should be penalised two strokes for playing his ball from the wrong place as you quite rightly state. To describe his action as cheating is ludicrous. Cheats are people who knowingly do something to improve their score - I’ve encountered a few of those over my 50 years of golfing but the overwhelming majority of rules breaches I have observed are down to misplaced ignorance of the rules and not deliberate abuse

He addressed the ball. Wouldn’t he have already marked it? This can’t be whole video…..

If Golf wants to be a stupid sport it will define that as cheating. So glad I quit the sport, no common sense

He picks it up and replace it a inch to the right without marking it. I don’t think you can do that🤔

Feel like he moved it left, I say cheating as they don’t make mistakes like that

Leon Campbell :
am I right in saying in general play area you can pick up and move your ball to make sure its yours, then replace in the same spot, then on the geen mark pick up clean and putt!
