ROCHESTER, New York : The highlight of Lee Hodges's third round at the PGA Championships on Saturday turned into the biggest disappointment after he was hit with a one-shot penalty for waiting too long for his ball to drop into the cup.
Playing the 17th, Hodges's putt rolled to the lip where it stopped and hung there as he walked up to the cup then waited as it dropped into the hole bringing a roar form the crowd.Ball Overhanging Hole Rule 13.3 states, if any part of a ball overhangs the lip of the hole the player is allowed a reasonable time to reach the hole and 10 more seconds to wait to see whether the ball will fall into the hole.
The penalty was part of an ugly bogey, bogey, bogey finish to Hodges's round of five-over 75 that left him near the bottom of the leaderboard at 10-over.
