Alright, grab your coffee, let's chat about this little twist in the PGA Championship, yeah?
So, there's Garrick Higgo, this young South African golfer, right? He's been making waves, and then bam! He gets hit with a penalty at the PGA Championship. Now, I'm not talking about a little tap on the wrist, oh no, this was a biggie - two strokes!
Now, you might be thinking, "What on earth did he do to deserve that?" Well, my friend, it was all about the caddie, his caddie, that is. You see, during the second round, ol' Garrick's caddie, Alex, was spotted lining up a putt. And we all know that's a no-no in the rulebook, right?

Now, here's where it gets interesting. Garrick, he didn't see a thing. Nope, he was none the wiser. But the rules are the rules, and the penalty had to stick. Poor Garrick, he must've been thinking, "Well, that's just peachy!"
But here's where the story takes a turn. Garrick, he's a stand-up guy. He takes responsibility, even though it wasn't his doing. He says, "It's my job to know the rules, and I didn't." Respect, right?
