Thankfully we have rules to follow in such an instance.
Fair Play?

Hull was walking towards Petterson and was still on the green - not sure when walking away was considered given - I only consider a putt given when my opponent either says so or gestures that it is given - anything else and I'll putt out

For arguments sake Phil, let's just say Hull was going to the Burger van.

Yes it was bad form of Lee to assume the concession. Something she had been warned about twice yesterday.

Yes, so you keep saying.

You see, I'd always wait for the words.
I wouldn't assume that because someone is walking away that the putt was conceded.
Look at the footage
Charley and the rest are moving away, no doubt about that. But they could just as easily be moving away from the eyeline of the next putt.
Anyway, its another reason I hate Matchplay.....

Then would look to her partner and see what she says .

At the end of the day, I would have said something along the lines of "I'll see that in" to make sure there was no doubt.
Now the stock answer is going to be "she didn't have to say anything, the Yank shouldn't assume".
But I still think it's wrong that Hull, wherever she was going, turned her back on the player.

The whole situation would have been nullified with a quick "is that ok"
Then the US player would have been in no doubt

Hull was inexperienced and naive to walk as she did.
Lee was the same to pick up the ball. One was a lapse in concentration, one was a rule breach. Cut and dry.

There may have been a bit of tit for tat here.
This comment was under that video link.
"USA Captain Bradley said they "have only the greatest respect for the rules of the game" and that they "followed the rules as written" after forcing Annika Sorestam to retake the chip she holed in 2000."
My missus also has a long memory - it's in their genes.

Thats really poor. Call Charlie hull naive if you want but she is an experienced enough pro to know that her walk off meant a concession. No doubt.

So she lied to the match ref?

I guess it depends on what she was told to say

We are getting very close to throwing accusations towards a young girl here.
Don't think it's right at all and maybe we should take the players words at face value

If you walk away like the Europeans clearly did, you've conceded. Simple as that, bad form I think and not in the spirit of the game.

So you are definitely calling Hull a liar?
