Tiger was using a putter today that had a Ping grip on it. Not sure what kind but they showed a close up of him reading a putt and I laughed about how the ping grip clashed with all his Nike stuff.

That's the worst shot I ever remember seeing from Tiger wow. Not as bad as that guy who hit the massive duck hook when he was in contention at that major last year on sunday. Anyone remember the specifics?

Furyk hit a really bad shot, but it hit a tree and came backwards. If not for the tree, Furyk would have just been way left. Tiger didn't hit anything. He chilli dipped a drive that went about 150 yards before stopping SHORT of the fairway.

I just listened to an interview with Andy McFee the European Tour rules guru. He said the rule that resulted in Tiger's DQ is the same on all pro tours. I'm surprised Tiger hadn't been exposed to it either on his ball or the ball of a player he was scoring. Oh well, it gives him more time to practice for San Diego.

Did Tiger claim to know all the rules? That would be surprising. I've seen instances on the PGA Tour where even Mark Russel, the Tour rules guru, would have to consult with his colleagues on an obscure situation.

He hit a shot into desert vegetation and it plugged. He thought he was entitled to relief and Martin Kaymer agreed. They were both wrong and Tiger had a stroke penalty added to his score.
