it was nearly impossible for the ball to rotate back 15 degrees or so after he soled the club lightly beside the ball (no touch) and simply moved the putter behind what seemed to be an inch or so - but never grounded the head. Yes you're right - the video was not 100% definitive (either way) and at that point take the pro's word.
I think that the video was 100% definitive. There is no way a club behind the ball and never touching the ball or the ground behind it could make a ball rotate backward.

What they're trying to say is that the ball move as a result of him soling the club next to it while making practice strokes. I'd like to understand the physics involved that can show that an object placed to the side of a ball can make the ball move backward several seconds after the object is removed.

I think that it was obvious to everyone except these two idiots that he did nothing to make the ball move.
