Ya it was just sitting there all T'ed up on grass.. he would have hit it.

Well, it certainly was after he dropped it in the shorter grass. Where, of course, it miraculously didn’t plug after dropping from about the same height it did on the bounce.
It’s not speculation that a ball that bounced in four inch rough wasn’t embedded. It 100% wasn’t embedded.
Reed is surely one of those Georgia Democrats because he so openly and brazenly cheats and is not worried about any repercussions.

Same for Rory.
Slow motion video of Rory's ball (see video) shows it could have bounced up and come to rest in the same hole. Bottom line is Rory did not pick up his ball until he advised his playing partner that he believes his ball is embedded, then he picked it up and confirmed it was. Marked his ball with a tee, declared rule 16.3 and had his caddy clean the ball then he dropped it within a club length of where he marked it. Nobody doubts Rory because he has never been caught, on camera, blatantly cheating, as has Reed. BTW, Reed claims the girl observer said "no it did not bounce," when he ask her "did it bounce?" (see this video at :18 second mark He has repeated that error over and over. The girl observer actually was recorded saying, "No, I did not see it bounce." So of all the people he claims he asked if they saw it bounce, not one person said "No, it did not bounce." They all said they did not see it bounce. He could not conclude, logically, that he had an eye witness who said they were certain it did not bounce.

I would also add about Rory look at where he dropped his ball. He didn’t even take a full club length and it disappeared again right back into the rough. Reed managed to get into shorter grass and gain an advantage after somehow his ball didn’t plug when it was dropped from knee height.

I’m sure he’d appreciate the blow job.

I think he was 14 under and won by 5 strokes. No one but Reed knows if his ball was embedded. For all we know his ball could have bounced into a plug created by a previous golfer or the spotter could of accidentally stepped on his ball. Sure looks suspicious and possible but I see zero proof that Reed cheated.
I would bet that, like all the other players, he probably broke some that he was totally unaware of breaking. Just by setting foot on a golf course, a person probably has already broken at least three.

Yes, and then there are minor ones.

Not only a less than minimally educated person, but stupid and out of touch as well.

Dropping a ball is much different than a shot coming in even on a one bounce. Reed hit from a bunker, a regular shot has tremendous spin a sand shot creates even more, that second landing would still have been a live ball digging in, if it was spongy at all it would have been embedded, grass wouldn't stop it. Finally watched the video and it hit close to the cart path where's its harder than where it landed.
There's a chit load of physics going on in a golf shot, saying that that ball wasn't embedded 100%... is 100% bullchit.
F'n hackers judging what they can't do or even understand.

Valid points.

Hackers judging what they can do or even understand? You mean like Nick Faldo. Or, maybe even good old Patrick Reed himself:
Reed was shocked that the post-round video showed that the ball had bounced and confirmed that it's "almost impossible" for a ball to plug (or embed) if it bounces at all. That begs a lot of questions, not the least of which is what lip he and the rules official were feeling if it's "almost impossible" for the ball to plug when it bounces.
You should probably tell Reed he is hacker and has no understanding of the many ways a ball can embed itself after a soft bounce since he thinks it is “almost impossible”.
