Should Lefty withdraw from the US Open, and should he have been DQ'd?

The rules are the rules. It appears the penalty for what he did is clearly defined in the rules, except that there should be something in there about not being able to benefit (get closer to the hole), which he obviously was able to do. I think he should have been DQ'd.
Did his illegal swat count as a ****, plus the 2 **** penalty? If not then it wasn't actually a 2 **** penalty.

s-t-r-o-k-e haha. Whoever set up the filter for this program has an exceptionally dirty mind.
I don't think I care one whit whether he gets a 2 **** penalty or gets DQ'd. Now, if our next commit is ready, I am ready to get excited.
No reason for Phil to be dq’ed. He knew the penalty and continued his round.
It would be easier on him to ''no mas'', I say let him finish at 20 plus over par.
Read today where he said he was just taking advantage of the rule. No way he can be DQed then. The penalty is clearly stated...2 strokes - not ejection. Smart move on his part it seems. He might be the Bellichik of golf.
