Was he arrested? shooting 72 is a mass killing! why is the msm protecting him? How many machine guns with belted ammunition did he have? Oh the horridness of it.

He’s a punk. He should have self-reported this. That’s the great thing about golf. For the most part it’s a gentlemans game, and gentlemen stick to the rules.

Yes it does seem like a trend, in golf and other areas of character.

Lucky for him that the freelance videographer was there to record the mistake. Tiger would not have been able to sleep or party all night knowing that he had cheated again (note a couple of months ago some one had to inform him to take a penalty). Which begs the question - how many times has Tiger had oscillating golf balls (not Las Vegas oscillating balls) or other such infractions that were conveniently overlooked. But then again, if everybody else is doing it I suppose that it is then considered a “generally accepted practice” and is OK.

Caught cheating is not good for the sport.

If anyone is really interested, you can watch the video here:

Here's the video. You be the judge. Did the officials get it right?

I have to agree with Tiger on this one - this was a bogus call on the part of the rules official and he shouldn’t IMO been given a two shot penalty for this. The ball did not move, i.e. roll or change position, it did oscillate a bit but, barely so, but it did not change position and his actions certainly did nothing to improve the lie, and as soon as he realized that if he did completely remove the twig from in front of the ball, that the ball would move, at that point he stopped trying to remove it and played it as it lied.

Has he been arrested yet, or is he going to get away with it because he’s a celebrity?

Evidently the days are gone when fans would look the other way, take one in the chest for him, or help him out with a foot wedge. It seems the guy cheats at everything.

That is a clear penalty that Woods should have called on himself. You KNOW if the ball moves when you remove debris.
