Controversy is rife in golf at the moment and I did warn of the rule changes months ago together with the importance of players making schedules that suit them. The unfortunate Li Haotong was hit with a harsh and costly two-shot penalty in the Dubai event last month, and it is generally considered that a rather over enthusiastic rules official wanted his 15 minutes of fame -- much to the detriment of the visibly shocked Chinese player. And those who played in Saudi Arabia last week are probably wishing that they had organised their schedules somewhat differently. I've touched on several times that all planets must be aligned for a week of good golf. There are few who get it right when it comes to informing viewers of what they're looking at.
