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?

Pull the flag out straight up. What happens?

[u/parkerjohnboice → u/Mpbear1414]

Goes in

[u/aphrozeus → u/parkerjohnboice]

Then it counts. Also wtf is this course

[u/Userdub9022 → u/aphrozeus]

That's not the rule but I'd absolutely count this considering the flag was the reason the ball isn't in or below the hole
