I'll never understand the logic behind that ruling.. The ball went backwards and unless it was magnetized to his putter it wouldn't have done that while not even grounded.. They really deserve tremendous amounts of scorn for the ruling and their handling of the matter..

The little smug rules official was just on the Golf Channel. The ex pro analyst kept asking the rules geek if he had ever seen a ball move after a player took s practice stroke next to it. He would never answer the question. I swear the pro on the set was about to punch the rules guy in the face.

The Bear, Rory, Jordan, Ricky,etc..all letting them rightfully have it.
ETA. There was a great piece recently about the ball needing to be changed due to today's clubs balls and golfer conditioning. It specifically mentions DJ's ability to go 600+ yards in two swings, and amongst even smaller guys like Rory doing the same on the regular, and/or just going over tall trees without needing to use hook, draw, or punch shots, making a mockery of Par 5s. Thus, also wonder if the USGA weren't sorta "sitting out Draymond for Gm 5" with that non-ruling or ruling hanging in limbo down the stretch..
Just shitty to have been slow/indecisive on the ruling..makes USGA look hokey..and getting it possibly wrong to boot even with video?
