Has banning the anchor made a difference?

Where's the ball? That might be a practice swing

[Yossarian]

You are possibly more contrary than myself. Which is impressive.

The video posted is put together is edited using 2 separate camera shots, and no ball visible. Could easily get a shot of an anchored practice stroke, cut to different angle real stroke, no ball... GUILTY!!!On one hand it's conclusive proof, on the other, some well edited click bait.

It is the actual footage of the putt. Cheat.

People may not like Brandel Chamblee but he says what he thinks, here is his take on Langer and McCarron.

"Chamblee did not specifically mention any player by name."

Where is his take on anyone?

Leaves no doubt here who he is talking about

Not really surprising.

It's funny how Langer and McCarren are the top earners in their tour class.

Just a quick check on our mate Langer:
Driving - 8th
GIR - 2nd
Scrambling - 3rd
Putting - 2nd

Being better than all the other players on the tour will generally mean you going to take more cash. What am I missing?

[olddogmike]

McCarron wins again, would the result be the same without his cheat stick?

No. Would Speith have won the british open if you made him use a different putter?

[Sydney Hacker]

Of course he would when he can just drop the bloody ball where he wants

Last time I checked Mike, they didn't ban long putters.

[olddogmike]

I appreciate that Rich. But the rules are too open to abuse, how do you prove or disapprove intent, and I reckon these guys are taking advantage of the vague interpretation.

Mike you still have to get it on the green to be able to putt!

[goughy]

And hasn't the pga 'confirmed' they're not cheating (at least, I think they did that with Langer). Until they tell him he can't do it, then they're not gonna stop!

I know what you mean but that means the officials have to get the rules right. If they are open to interpretation, then so be it. If that needs to change, change it. They're not cheats until they break a rule. Feeble minded yippers? Yes. Cheats? No.
