Theegala takes 2-shot penalty only he could see at East Lake

But I’d say I’m 98, 99% sure that some sand was moved. “I’ve just played so much golf. You spend so much time of your life staring down at the lie you have, the ball you have, and it just did not feel like a normal fairway bunker shot. It felt like some of the sand moved.”
