In the days of premier league football and players doing literally anything to cheat and gain an advantage, I found this article. A real great example of why golf is so amazing. This will cost him tens if thousands but he needed a clear conscience

Fair play, and hopefully he is rewarded for his honesty in the future.

Earn him thousands in long run though, all those sponsors invites he is going to get for next 12 months, I am not saying that's why he has done it but it's what's going to happen

Always one to play Devils Advocate, I would suspect even if he wasn't encouraged to do so, he knew someone had seen the incident, be it his caddy or a spectator, and it ground him down over the next few days.

Five days is a long time to stew on something like that. As someone that has played county golf as a younger man(Ie, a fairly decent level), you make that sort of call straight away, you don't sit on it for 5 days.  IMHO of c...

It would eat away at you if you were brought up as a golfer in a golf environment from an early age, which he would have been. Fair play to him but yes he should have called it on himself there and then.  But, to play devils advocate even further, there is no advantage gained at all in ever so slightly grounding a club in a bunker the way he describes it. Golf is a funny game like that. The rules are very well respected but some are plain daft.

If he had chipped away at the sand around the ball to tee it up or picked at the surface to assess the firmness then yes, that would create an advantage but a small indent that he might have made is not going to have helped him. Great respect for the rules though.
