Transcript excerpt

Bryson DeChambeau was hit with a two stroke penalty at the British Open on Friday, and he was furious. The infraction came at the fifth hole during his second round on his second shot into the green. After saving bogey on the hole, DeChambeau continued about his business, shooting a 66 to pull into solo second at seven under. It was not until after the round that DeChambeau was informed by the RNA that an infraction may have occurred. Then came the wild scene of DeChambeau and multiple rules officials driving back out to the fifth hole in carts, the scene of the crime where DeChambeau furiously pleaded his case. Clearly by Bryson's reaction, he had already been told a two stroke penalty was coming and it did long after the round. Apparently, Bryson had improved his intended area of backswing when he stepped on this brush. That ultimately changed DeChambeau's bogey five into a triple bogey seven, dropping him from seven under to five under into a tie for six. DeChambeau still wasn't having tier, even mouthing, I'm not playing tomorrow. He did not meet with the media after the round, so we're gonna have to just see if he's six to his word on that one.
