re: Week 18 of 2014 Golf Thread

Yesterday on 6 tee they had a player question the ruling on hitting from 2 club lengths behind the tee marker. Freddie Jacobson was going 2 lengths behind but hit the ball outside the tee marker (went down 12 fairway like Loupe did all week). His partner (can't remember who it was) said going back 2 was good but the ball must pass between the markers. Rules official said Freddie was right, the ball does not have to pass between the markers.

As the week went on more and more guys went down 12 fairway on 6 instead of messing with the water. It cuts off 40-50 yards on the second shot. Wonder if next year that will be OB left.
