Bryson DeChambeau was embroiled in a furious exchange with rules officials during the second round of The Open in a clash over a possible two-shot penalty.
In astonishing scenes at Royal Birkdale on Friday, the American could be seen shouting animatedly at officials as they argued over whether he improved his lie on the fifth hole.
DeChambeau shot a second-round 66 to haul himself up to second in the leaderboard before he was carted back to the fifth to discuss the incident.
After a prolonged, emotional argument, the LIV Golf star was still chuntering as he was driven back toward the clubhouse.
It was still unclear at that point if he would be penalized for improving his lie by trampling down the rough near his ball to aid his backswing.
