If Tiger had an ounce of integrity he would DQ himself from the Masters

He took an illegal drop plain and simple. He, unknowingly, even admitted to doing so in an interview after the round. This is golf not the WWE - he should start being a good role model for the first time in his life and do the right thing ..

What say you

On 15?

What was illegal about it? Not arguing, just curious what was wrong with it.

Where is that tough guy Euro rules official that flexed his muscles to a 14 year old?

Rules are rules, right?

Supposed to drop from as close to the original spot as possible and he said he was 2 yards away.

Ahhh. Yeah, he won't get DQed.

He makes way too much money for golf.

It'd be like Jordan getting called for a travel on a dunk.

It's a water hazard. He can take the point where the ball crossed the hazard and go back as far as he wants in line with the flag

His line made from the hole and where his ball entered the hazard had changed.

In other words, he should have moved about 20 yards to his left.

Correct but tiger did not do that. Not even close. After watching the shot, drop, and interview, there is no question that it was an illegal drop. Tiger should do the right thing and DQ himself.

eta: and by no means am I saying tiger did it on purpose. I think he thought he was taking a good drop.

The ball entered the hazard left of the flag. Meaning he would have had to drop way to the left to keep the line from the hazard to the pin if he were to choose this penalty. Otherwise he has to drop where he last played.

What? It's not even close. In a sport with integrity as its foundation, and especially on a stage such as The Masters, this is a huge deal.

I hope Tiger wins this tournament and ends up passing Nicklaus, but I agree. After seeing all of the evidence, he should DQ himself.

Golf has to get all the ratings it can. No way Woods get disqualified as much as some would like. The officials should have corrected it at the hole right then and there, their fault.
