The sport of golf has always been a gentlemen's game. It is a game of integrity, sportmanship and above all to adhere to the rules of the game. However, I feel the Harrington incident is very harsh and raises the questions whether the armchair umpires should be allowed to make such a call.
Yes we need to protect the game and yes this is why golf is unique. But submitting an incorrect score should be because the player KNOWINGLY altered or ignored a penalty stroke on him/herself. Its a shame that Harrington ended his tournament this way and poor him as this was his second time he's had problems on the green. Remember his ball move when he was about to putt two or three years ago?
How unlucky could a guy be?
