If not for IK Kim's gag of her 18" putt at the 2012 KNC...I think Lexi would have just tapped in the putt without marking it.
Even Bubba said he learned from the incident and took no putt for granted winning a REAL major, the 2012 Masters.

Thank you for letting me vent! I really do feel empathy for Lexi and what she went through, but the way (some of) her fans have treated Ryu online has been so crummy that I'm starting to lose patience. I think someone said it on WRX. Those "Lexi supporters" who trolls SYR on social media probably don't know who Lexi is 24 hours ago. |

Tru dat...the amount of posts on cyber space about this is nutty....it would have been crickets as usual if not for the 4 stroke penalty. |

I feel for Chella Choi. The alliteration makes for such a fun nickname. 'Cheatin' Chella Choi'. Like a character out of the wild west or something.

That's why her corporate sponsors print their logo on it. |

This is, without a doubt, the greatest thing that's happened for women's golf in a long time.
550 comments on a golfchannel article during Masters week.

I bet 500 of those don't know anything about the LPGA. About 1/3 of them are mine. Your point still stands. (just kidding) |

I hope all the people calling for So Yeon to give the trophy to Lexi and the reporters making Lexi into a Martyr will help call the "fans" off when So Yeon is getting heckled this year.

Slippery slope! There's only one outcome to all this. Women's golf, or maybe all pro golf, is going to evolve into little more than a battle of which player's fans can best spot rules infractions from their TVs.
It is so exciting to find out that we TV viewers actually possess great authority and power in the world of televised golf. I know when the time comes I will be ready to answer the call: if your name is not In Gee, Inbee or Minjee, you better watch out because I'm gonna have my face pressed up against my TV set while you're putting and marking your balls and grounding your club in the rough and what not. You been warned.

Phil Mickelson apparently said that Lexi should be given the trophy. Cool, now I have someone to root against this week!

You been warned. Legit, Do you even know any golf rules?  My favorite golf line to tell my group is "I don't cheat...but I have. " Today Jack said he never mis-marked his ball. He said Lexi couldn't have done it intentionally. I really can't speculate about that. Even if it was intentional I'd forgive her so that's no big deal to me. But intent doesn't matter so I'm glad the TV viewer helped point out the infraction for the field. |
