You hit your tee shot out of bounds and instead of playing on you just quit the game and started again knowing you would shoot a better score for that hole if you just restarted instead.
I thuoht the penalty stroke only applied if you had connection problems during the game but you didn't.
You should be kicked out of the event for cheating.

no the penalty system was brought in to stop cheating and it works....look at my scorecard for that round and youll see 1 ps added.......not because of connection problems it also works if you just quit playing with post screen up....i wanted to warn others about the oobs so i started a solo match were i could screenshot the problem..i couldnt do that while playing the tourney.......i shouldnt have bothered and just played on.....

Briso he didn't cheat. Penalty strokes are added for disconnects, if the game doesn't offer a drop zone but not for rehits. Not sure which Mark did but being an administrator, I would classify his actions as not cheating in any way.

He disconnected on purpose because he might have hit a big score on that hole.
It was easier for him to restart and just get a one stroke penalty.
It,s still cheating.
