Defending champion Ben Crane was disqualified last week from the U.S. Bank Championship for signing an incorrect scorecard.
Crane must have rushed, he signed for a 3 on the par-5 sixth hole in the second round when he only managed a 5.
Ben 'Slow Play' Crane is not noted for his speed on the golf course. The slowest golfer on the PGA Tour, Crane will be remembered for lack of pace on the course rather than being one of the top 10 putters in the world.

Adam Scott is regarded as the most exciting young Australian golfer since Greg Norman. At the age of 23 years, eight months and 12 days, he became the youngest winner of The Players Championship on the US PGA Tour, an event considered by many to be the game's fifth Major.
Scott is a four-time winner on the US PGA Tour. His initial breakthrough came at the 2003 Deutsche Bank Championship after a second round 62 set up a four stroke win and saw Adam break into the top 20 in the World Rankings for the first time.
