Time Expire Bug

  My opponent's time expired with 71 seconds remaining on his shot clock.  This happened on the 3rd hole of Oakmont, roughly 0345 CST.

  Second time I have seen this happen.  Just thought I would post it up for review.

  This has happened to me 3 times and I have seen it 2 other times with other players.

  Hi guys,

  I'm told that this is a difficult issue to reproduce, so any help you (or anyone else!) can provide would be greatly appreciated.

  If you've experienced this issue, please post here with info such as

  - what course it occurred on

  - your location on the course (on the green, on the tee)

  - how much time was left on the clock. 

  
  

  Any details you could provide would be helpful in our trying to narrow this down.  Also, please right click and submit a bug while you are still in game.  This will provide additional information that will help the QA team to squash that bug.

  Thanks very much!

     I`m not sure if this is related to the same problem but I`ll post in case it is.

     Twice during multi-play, my opponent has hit a great shot that goes to the auto-replay. When it finished, I went about my business setting up my shot, only to be timed out as if my shot clock started at the replay`s start!

     I use between 15 to 30 seconds for each shot and only more if the meter/graphics are really bad. Never more than 60 seconds, ever. So I was shocked to be timed out in both instances.

     Sorry I didn`t report in-game but....that`s almost laughable to think about, right after being timed out ;-). 

     I think the 1st time was on the front of BB (this weekend) and today at SA. I don`t remember any more details but, this (my glitch experience) is tied into the auto-replay and/or the shot clock, not the course, etc.

     If it happens again I`ll "take note" of more details but don`t expect in-game reports from me unless I`m playing single :-).

  The clock expired on me 2 times today while playing on BP back 9, one time it gave me an 1 stroke penalty. On both occasions i had only used up a few seconds of the 90 allowed.

  Was it directly after a replay?  

       If so, this is the problem.  It happened again to one of my CC members today @ 1328 PST on Kiawah #11 on the green after his opponent landed one 2 inches from the hole and a replay took place.

  It's happening on all the courses, if you have a replay it will give you 5 seconds on your clock before you are timed out I've had this happen on 3 different courses,so it's not course related
