When I was watching TGC earlier Brandel Chamblee said that he received a few texts from players that Rory's ball bounced and pitched back into its own mark.   Possible, sure, probably not what happened.

Both players believed their ball did not bounce.  And I have no problem with Reed or McIlroy making that assessment.   The new PGA tour rules (created a few years ago) will not penalize a player if they reasonably believed something, which is then shown to be wrong by video later on (** Will address the foundation of this on my next post).

It was reasonable for McIlroy or Reed to believe the ball did not bounce, and to believe there was a very slight mark against their ball, which allowed them to move their ball as the PGA tour had advised for this week.

[B]Quite simply, I will sum my last two 100,000 word posts into a few sentences.   I believe Rory when he says his ball was against some mark.  I don't fully 100% believe Reed when he says his ball was against a mark. [/B] The fact that he moved the ball then called over an official to observe does not make me feel any better.
