I say no foul because once the ball hits the ground (right off the tee), no fair catch or opportunity to catch is involved. Free ball.
What rule set are you looking for answers for? Cause under NCAA rules, a ball that is driven directly into the ground in a effort to get that big bounce (like you see in most onside kicks) is treated as though it's been kicked directly in the air...and all subsequent rules as such are in effect (KCI).

Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is.
