  1. What if the blonde didn't say anything, just let it go, would the officials still jump in and disqualify Moon? Or does the opponent need to protest? Because sometimes the officials are too far away to hear anything.

  2. Part of me thinks that it was wrong for Shepherd to have not give her that putt, because shepherd knows she's won if she's done that, but Moon should not have dragged it away so quickly. Shepherd was a little bit mean to do that and Moon assumed that the putt was given.

  3. Both can be true. Moon screwed up by assuming. Shepard was trash for not conceding and then calling her at that moment. You could see the wheels turning before she made the statement loud enough for everyone to hear. Trash.

  4. Tough one here. I've been in the golf business my whole life. That blond girl knew she could've saved the other one. She knew what she was doing. But also, the other girl knows better. You don't get that good without tons of time spent on the game. They're both at fault, and not at fault. If you're a competitve golfer you know how damn strict the rules are. Like the whole Dustin Johnson scenario at the PGA at Whistling Straights.

  5. Shepherd did nothing wrong. Moon pulled it back way too soon. She has to at least wait for Shepherd to concede, those are the rules and she learned them the hard way. An instance where emotions ( anger for missing a small putt ) take over and you forget to think about the process. OUT OF RESPECT FOR THE GAME, MOON HAS THE BIGGER OBLIGATION TO LOOK TO SHEPHERD FOR A RESPONSE, SHE CANNOT ASSUME SHEPHERD WILL SAY ANYTHING !!!

  6. completely the fault of the girl who dragged the putt away… If she didn't give it to you don't touch it… if I was in the situation where I was looking to go on to the final round on extra holes, I wouldn't give anyone a putt

  7. The spirit of the game

    Not asking your opponent for permission to move the ball in match play is disrespectful to your opponent and the game. Lawlessness wrecks everything in the path.
