I think this one will be one where we will have to agree to disagree.

I agree Dustin made a mistake and most players would agree with that.   I think most players would also agree that Kevin Na showed up another player unnecessarily and it has nothing to do with not giving him the putt.   So they were both in the wrong for different reasons.

Stricker agreed that DJ should have not picked up the putt.  I don't think he ever condoned the way that Na handled the situation however.

I know that was the common sentiment amongst the tour players per quotes.   Most agreed that DJ was in the wrong, but most were subtle (or less subtle) in how they would have handled it differently / poorly handled by Na.

The proper way to do it was to pull him aside before the next hole and discuss who would win that prior hole.  After all DJ had either already lost the hole or Na was going to go ahead and give it to him.    Na waiting around the hole accomplished nothing other than a professional showing up another professional which is not something that sits well with other players.

Dustin made a mistake.
Na showed up another tour player unnecessarily..
I would guess that more players remember the latter, but who knows.
