How did Paige Spiranac cheat in golf?

In an episode of her podcast, Spiranac discussed the Patrick Reed controversy of ruling the embedded ball. It was during the Farmers Insurance Open at Torey Pines that turned into an internet debate later. While discussing the incident, she said, “I cheated myself once, and I learned my lesson the very hard way,”

“It was one of my very first tournaments, I ended up hitting a ball in the water but I was on a very steep slope. I just ended up dropping another ball and saying I found it,” she added. Spiranac also revealed that her mother played an essential role in teaching her a lesson.

“I played it off and my mum, who packed my golf bag the night before, said ‘hey you started the round with six balls how do you only have five?’… She is one of the sweetest ladies ever but she is scary, you do not want to disappoint her. She just gave me this look and she said ‘if you ever do that again, if I ever catch you cheating, you will never play golf ever again.’
