The Lexi Thompson, ANA decision was the latest all time bad decision possible. First of all the rules commission has to quit taking viewers rules evaluations. Secondly it is absurd to let a viewer's next day ruling on the previous day is totally wrong. To penalize Lexi for signing an incorrect scorecard 2 strokes when the round was over with no penalties assessed until the next day is completely unfair to the golfer who would have easily won the year's first major with just a 2 stroke penalty for the infraction which never should have been reviewed the next day in the first place. This ability to let armchair viewers affect rules and subsequent play is unheard of in any sport today why should the PGA allow it in golf ESPECIALLY the next day. When the round is over it's over. You can't be deciding outcomes the next day! Today's decision is maddening to say the least!
