The golf channel is, as usual, trying to make a little suspense out of it. A 2 second lookup on the Rules of Golf would have answered that question...

20-5. Making Next Stroke from Where Previous Stroke Made
When a player elects or is required to make his next stroke from where a previous stroke was made, he must proceed as follows:
(a) On the Teeing Ground: The ball to be played must be played from within the teeing ground. It may be played from anywhere within the teeing ground and it may be teed.
(b) Through the Green and in a Hazard: The ball to be played must be dropped.
(c) On the Putting Green: The ball to be played must be placed

So there is no 2 stroke penalty since he didn't play from the wrong place.
