I've been bouncing in and out while trying to watch as much as possible but i think i heard Curtis Strange talking about a "conduct unbecoming" charge the PGA can apply? Again i may have misunderstood what was being said.
EDIT: Apparerently he can be DQ'd.
This from ESPN,

In an apparent act of frustration, Phil Mickelson chased after his moving ball on the 13th green Saturday at Shinnecock Hills and struck it before it could get farther from the hole.
Doing so is a breach of Rule 14.5 which prohibits a player from hitting a moving ball. It's a two-stroke penalty and in some cases could lead to disqualification. Mickelson, who was celebrating his 48th birthday on Saturday, continued to play on.
