Just back in and catching up with this but the first players are out in 15 minutes. Surely a decision needs to made before they tee off?
Also, he got a 2 shot penalty in Abu Dhabi for an incorrect drop. You'd think he be more careful

I suppose, technically, they have until the fi al putt drops tomorrow but, yes, the sooner the better.

I hope they DQ him. But he's Tiger so they won't.

Agree - should be DQ'd.
IMO every golfer that doesn't follow the rules isn't playing Golf, but something similar to Golf.

Rumours of a 2 shot penalty being applied!!

It is hard to tell from a video but it looks very much as if the ball was dropped a lot nearer that divot than the 2 yards talked of in his interview. It may have been close enough - but I am just mentioning a possibility as we can't make a judgment on that alone. Not that that is hindrance to making judgments in a forum

why would anyone actually want him dq'd on here? As a fan of golf I feel a major competition is much the poorer if he isnt in it and contending.
No one kicked up last night after watching him drop and hit his shot, in fact a few commented on what a great recovery after the setback.
Once it was posted online this morning suddenly everyone is quick to jump on their rules is rules bandwagon.

Starts third round -1 now.
Unbelievable, they've found a technicality to keep him in the Masters.

Dangerous precedent being set here.

This!
Haters lately have been walking on eggshells, what with TW being so close to dominating again. So any negative story surrounding the man is enough firepower for them to come out of the woodwork. I see many names here that are never in the ''positive'' threads of TW.
Says it all really.......:thup:

If anything we have to see tiger play even better now to try and win, he has to find 2 strokes from somewhere, should be good watching I think.

Apparently been incriminated by what he said and not the TV coverage.

@shanelowrygolf: This is a joke. In my opinion anyone else would have been DQ'd. When you sign for the wrong score that's what's supposed to happen.

DQ should have been the only option.
Regardless of who it was.
If it had been Gmac or Luke or whoever else the same questions would have been asked.
From the TV footage, watched at the time, I doubt anyone in the World could have known about it.
If Tiger hadn't said that he moved back 2 yards this would never have happened.
A Rule has been broken - that has been confirmed as Tiger's got a 2 shot penalty for it.
Augusta have decided not to DQ.
Would anyone else have survived this?
Proof that Tiger is bigger than the Rules.
