Trumper golfer Bryson DeChambeau assessed 2 stroke penalty in British Open--

Now he is threatening to pull out of the tournament. Sound familiar? I wonder if Trump will try to interfere?

Does he realize the British and the rest of Europe hate Trump.

around his ball? So he got the two-stroke penalty. Did he drop out?

There are very few of these guys I would trust with anything.

But as I watched this I was wondering if it’s kosher to stomp the grass down in a situation like this. Because it’s obvious that’s what he was doing.

He actually watched it on TV when he wasn't playing it.

Me? I agree with George Carlin - watching golf on TV is like watching flies f**k.

The fact he cheated just confirms his shittyness.
If he TACOs out, the tournament is better off.

But at 5:33 or so it looks like he did what they say he did. I don't think it's worth a big dispute, though I'm sure the penalty could cost him a few thousand dollars in terms of final placement.
