Here we go again. Another rules controversy in golf.
Lexi Thompson made headlines in April for a minor rules infraction that cost her a major championship, which set off a firestorm on Twitter.
Jon Rahm sparked another controversy on Sunday at the Irish Open - a tournament he'd win by six shots - after some questionable ball-marking, and social media again chimed in.
It would've been a two-shot penalty, not a one-stroke penalty.
