The replay official must have conclusive evidence that the penalizedplayer didn't intentionally target a defenseless player in order to overturn the call on the field.
Hours after the 14-year-old was the first player ever penalized for slow play at the Masters, he became the youngest player to make the cut at Augusta National.
If an on-site rules official oversees how a player makes a drop or enacts some other rule, the player cannot be penalized later even if the official's guidance is wrong.
For example, a high school football player who takes part in a team hazing ritual could be penalized, even if the action occurred at someone's house on a weekend.
