    The pga tour officials are at the top of the pile in that dog house.
    Btw who plays golf named schenck?

    The knee high ruling is better, although I would just place the ball; with No replacing once ball is released.
    Also do not penalize players for shoulder high drops. That’s just silly. At least for now.
    The rules need to be shortened further, pace of play rules need to be revolutionized —especially for big tournaments where sunlight and viewers patience and attentions spans are all precious, and communication needs to be much improved.
