In regards to the recent Jordan Spieth incident, of which his incorrect scorecard disqualified him from a tournament… I mean, this is 2024. Every shot he takes is being recorded and discussed. Everyone in charge of running that event already knew what his score was, so why does an error like this erase his results? Is any other sport like this in which the players can be disqualified for being bad at math?

Yep. This is a rule in [Aussie rules football](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FCp28zzO6Pw&ab_channel=SecretBase). If a team is caught with any extra players on the field, they loose all of the points they had earned until then. Apparently it almost happened once in 1975 and attempting to enforce it resulted in players running off the pitch and hiding so they could not be counted.
