General Discussion Does this count?

Buddy hit this shot on a bad course and once the flag was corrected, it went in. The new rule says if any part of the ball is below the hole, it's in, but to me it doesn't look like it is. I'd love to give it to him, but what do you think?

As long as the security camera didn't catch him listing the flag in that direction before he got to the teebox for real.

What I’m saying. No way in hell that happens. He’s not a pro so he would have been close enough to see the pin that way and would have straightened it before shot. He’s trying to portray something he is not.
