Will Dave Portnoy hand out a penalty in episode 1?

Portnoy runs this event as judge and jury, and last year he docked Luke Kwon's side four holes before most viewers had finished breakfast.

Resolves YES if Dave Portnoy is shown imposing a penalty or ruling against any player or team in episode 1: holes, strokes, money, or disqualification. Threats, jokes, or warnings without an actual ruling resolve NO.

Settles when episode 1 of the 2026 Internet Invitational airs, expected autumn 2026. Closes 9 August 2026, 23:59 ET, before any repeat of last year's mid-August filming window, because the result exists the moment the golf is played.

If the 2026 tournament is cancelled or no 2026 episode has aired by 31 March 2027, voids and refunds.
