The suit said it was Sanchez's third shot on the hole. The marker was 150 yards from the green. So, after the two-stroke penalty for interfering with a ball in play, he is sitting five hitting six. Case closed.

Why does only go part way?
Sue the maker of the club, the ball, the maker of the marker and himself for being such an idiot.
In my experience, just aim for the marker and you’ll be safe.

Reminds me of the foursome composed of a doctor, an attorney, a minister and an accountant who would play every Tuesday morning. One day they got behind a foursome that was taking FOREVER to play. Hole after hole they were spending 30 to 45 minutes per hole. Finally one of the trailing foursome got the attention of a manager and demanded to know why the group ahead was taking so long. The manager apologized and explained they were blind, had been blinded several years earlier when a golf car battery exploded, and the course let them play for free as a nice gesture.
The doctor expressed his apology for being so insensitive and offered to have a fellow eye doc take a look at their injuries.
The account also apologized and asked if he could work with the course accountants to get the course the best tax treatment for their kindness to the disabled.
The pastor expressed an apology and would certainly add the blind golfers to the prayer list at the church where he ministered.
The attorney asked, “Why can’t they play at night?”

This guy has no legal case. Each golf course posts a standardized legal disclaimer that indemnifies the course against any legal action resulting from being hit by golf balls in flight. This disclaimer applies to balls hit by yourself or any other golfer.
Any other arrangement and all the golf courses in America would be forced out of business.

I'm assuming this was the 150 yard marker that is usually placed for direction off the tee, not yardage for your third shot. Yardage markers through the green are usually flat plates or engraved on the tops of sprinkler heads for the very purpose of not interfering in the players line of flight.
Most of the erect 150 yard markers I've seen can be pulled out and replaced after a shot bringing them under the “movable obstruction” rule. This way a player doesn't need to take a drop. This player had to have been pretty close to the marker for it to ricochet fast and hard enough to blind him. If he failed to pull it out and place it on the grass then that was his error. If it was immovable and he didn't take a drop far enough away to take it out of play, again his fault.

Okay.... If the yard marker is stated to be 150 yards from the approximate center of the green, the first thing, as an attorney (well, I did stay at a Holiday Inn last night), I need to do is to go out and take a true measurement. If it's not exactly 150 yards, the marker should have been in a different spot and my client would never have suffered the serious injury he endured. The course should be cited for negligence. The decision is for the plaintiff.
Bailiff? Whack his pee-pee.
