No. No no no no no, a thousand times no.

The TD is an organizational spectator with off-field authority, and can not, of his own volition, stop diddly. I agree with C'Mon that if he insisted on making his way to the field, I hope he brought equipment.

Yes, you settle protests on the field in tournaments ... but there is absolutely no hint of a protest in Tee's OP, and I guarantee he would have mentioned it had there been one. Sounds like TD inserted himself of his own volition, when he disagreed with the PU's decision. No protest from either team. Completely uncalled for.
