I think the point he’s making, that I agree with, is “you’re a pro, don’t hit it behind the stands on the wrong hole”.
Not only did he get free relief from the stands, he got to take his ball out of knee high rough and put it on a perfect lie.

Rules are rules, he was entitled to it. But it pisses me off that it was him gaining positive relief. I was all for Spieth gaining positive relief in 2015 (I think it was 2015) when he went all over the place on that one hole.
Typically, Bryson would have been OB on a PGA Tour course with no relief possible except to fish out a new ball hitting three off the tee.
You are right, the Old Course seems very get-able today. Doubt Kisner’s round will stand as low for the day.
Wouldn’t mind seeing Holland win. He is eminently likeable.
I guess my biggest thing is instead of getting “relief” it was like he was getting a “reward” by coming out of the rough completely.
Hovland and McIlroy are putting on a helluva show right now
From the bunker Rory!!! Let’s go!!!
Happy for Hovland or Rory to take charge here. Don't want that fanny with the rat moustache to win.
Top 7 on the leaderboard right now has five of the top 10 on the World Golf rankings plus Dustin Johnson. This is pretty great
Yeah, it does rub the wrong way at times.
Cam Smith is great wtf you on about.
Wheels started coming off for the two Camerons on the back 9.
He’s a very good player, but he looks like an absolute goober.
Not been able to watch any of the Open but it looks like the LIV golfers, after talking a bunch of shit after day 1, are shitting the bed. You hate to see it.
I wonder if anybody reminded them that they play tomorrow?
Hopefully someone like Homa tweeted that to all of them. While I still like him, it was nice seeing DJ putt into a pot bunker today.
Aaaand the leaders are off!
Viktor has lost the plot here unfortunately.
Yep, shame, would have loved it to goto the wire but he could end up 3 shots back here.
Rory's strolled through the front 9 here
Get the feeling Rory is going to regret these missed chances. One under absolutely the worst he could have got from that front 9 given how he’s played.
This is a brilliant leaderboard
Certainly is.
Shit, Cam Smith has rediscovered his putter
Another poor putt from Mcilroy. Two putted every green so far.
Rory's got to play at some absurd levels, consistently, to actually a win Major doesn't he? He keeps recovering to get himself back in there Major after Major, but I think he truly really wants this one, he can't fold now.... wins this and follows it up with a smashfest at the Masters which he's mega capable of and it cements him top 10 though. C'mon Rory, pull it through.
Smith is putting unbelievably well.
Yeah it’s like he can’t catch a break like some of those guys do who get a final round where everyone else slips up.
Man I genuinely thought that Rory had this but no confidence now
rat face is going to win this now ffs
Fecking hope not …Rory will start putting soon
Rory is finding a way to not give himself a birdie chance at any hole here. It’s impressive in a way
Aye, Smith has this in the bag
Anyone know the playoff format?
Not been watching, just got in.
My mate said Rory's been a little cautious. Fair or just not happened for him today?

4 holes?
I'd say it's fair, been a midgies dick away from some putts too.
Standard Rory under pressure. Holes nothing and then the approach game starts to unravel. It’s still required an incredible blitz from Smith to beat him though.
Nice of Rory to save the bottling for the last day this time. Sink a fecking putt.
Rory has not given himself a single chance
Might be a bit unlucky for Rory to not end up in the GUR & receive a drop.
