Aussie Smith on Reed: No 'sympathy for anyone that cheats'

After watching the incident from halfway around the world, Cameron Smith didn't mince words when asked for his reaction to Patrick Reed's rules infraction at the Hero World Challenge.

Smith was busy competing in the Australian Open when Reed was docked two shots during Friday's third round in the Bahamas for improving his lie by moving sand behind his ball during two practice swings. The penalty proved consequential, as Reed finished the tournament exactly two shots behind winner Henrik Stenson.

Reed told reporters that he believed a different camera angle might have exonerated him, and Smith offered a colorful reaction when speaking with reporters in Sydney.
