This is where is gets tricky because the usga is on record as saying that a players intention does not matter SO I am not sure how they can penalize him on that drop.

If Tiger attempted to drop the ball in the same spot and it ended up two yards behind the original divot would he receive a penalty for a bad drop?

What if he intended to drop it two yards behind his original divot and it ended up in his original divot? Is that a penalty?

I have done a complete 180 on this since it happened. No way he should get penalized there IMHO FWIW

Yeah that statement from your rules official friend is pretty contradictory to all of this.

The whole thing was a clusterfrick from start to finished though.
