Thomas Pieters made headlines at the French Open this week because of his birdie putt on a par-five...

Pieters somehow managed to get a re-do after having a brief discussion with a referee at Le Golf National. He told the referee that he had an accidental hit because he was distracted by something.

You have to play the ball as it lays. I had to hit it off Frankensteins fat foot remember?

I’m no where near the golfing ability of these guys, but if I make a backswing and I'm behind the ball, I'm attempting to strike it. My practice swings/putts are made away from the ball.

I know if they accidentally tap the ball off the tee when waggling they get to re-tee without penalty. Didn’t realize if you accidentally tap a putt it’s the same rule. This was like a 4ft tap, should count.

I think that is just a French thing. Nowhere in the world have I seen that not cost a stroke. Not that I have ever seen this.
