ESPN zieht Garrick Higgo nach Strafe bei der PGA Championship mit Countdown-Uhr auf

Nachdem Garrick Higgo bei der PGA Championship aufgrund einer verspäteten Ankunft an seinem ersten Abschlag mit einer Zwei-Schlag-Strafe belegt wurde, wies ESPN am Freitag während der Live-Übertragung der zweiten Runde in Aronimink mit einem Countdown-Timer auf das Missgeschick hin.

Higgo erklärte nach seiner Runde, dass er den Abschlagbereich um 07:18:30 Uhr erreicht habe. Er hatte geplant, fünf Minuten früher einzutreffen, wurde jedoch bei seiner Zeitplanung zu nachlässig und musste den Preis in Form einer Strafe gemäß Regel 5.3a zahlen. Trotz des Rückschlags vom Donnerstag spielte er am Freitag eine Runde unter Par und wahrte damit seine Chancen auf den Cut.
