Some dude in the NCAA men’s tourney just accidentally double hit a chip & they penalized him for it.... I thought that was legal now.

Unless intentional, should not be a penalty nowadays.
Looked for the NCAA incident online couldn’t find anything.

I do believe you get charged with two strokes right? You did hit the ball twice. I hate when I do that. It's usually right around the green and your need to get up and down. Have to call yourself on it and it's obvious to anyone watching what happened. Such a bone head move
 
41/37 /78 today with a damn double on a par freaking 3 ugh plus one really boneheaded move on a par 5.

So instead of " laying up " on the approach i was roughly 250 out with a pond about 65 from the elevated pin . I normally would lay up and go in on the 3 rd shot but took my 2 hybrid which i hit pretty fair . That sumbitch hit the far side of the pond and rolled back in ...stupid move cost me a stroke and resulted in a bogie...
 
Had a 39 on the front side of Cortland CC. no birds or doubles. Beautiful conditioned course.
3 par 5’s in the first 5 holes then 3 par 3s next 4 holes.
Rains came at the turn and we went in to the 19th hole. Coulda been a contender.
 
Another 38 today : mostly pars but one damn double again .

We played in sprinkles , course about 17 miles UP RIVER needed the rain yesterday and today .Strangely at home sunny and mid 70's
 
Got out early today to beat the oppressive dew points .We played the River side course longer of my two regular course.

Shot a 40 .. It should have been an easy 38 but mental error (played into the wind the last two holes , a club short on the approach ). one over water to an elevated green settled for bogies .
