or the game of golf in general for that matter. 90% of them are not golf fans and do not understand the game.

If Tiger did the right thing and DQ'd himself Do you think Tiger would get invited to the Orgy Parties in the Private Room at Augusta with all the Role Models of Golf and Married Men?

After watching his interview, it's clear he did what he did to gain an advantage...should be a DQ but no way they would DQ him. TV ratings and money run this show and they know he is their money maker. No way he will WD, he is too much of an egomaniac. I never really liked him (respect his game but not the person) and the media makes me hate him more every day.

Augusta National added the two-shot penalty to his score, meaning he had a 73 instead of a 71 and now is five shots out of the lead. Officials said he was allowed to stay in the tournament under a new rule that keeps players from being disqualified based on television evidence.

The video evidence and his own words show he was wrong, DQ. They keep making up rules to protect the dickslinger.

I'd like to know when the rule was created.

they shouldn't be expected to know exactly where to drop, what's a hazard/bunker (think DJ a few years ago)
DJ had absolutely no excuse for what happened to him. They put explicit language in the local rules for that week (that he admitted he didn't read) in every player's locker saying ANY sandy area would be considered a hazard. I hated it for him but he grounded his club pure and simple.
Hell, this isn't even the first time THIS YEAR Woods has been penalized for an illegal drop. Happened in Abu Dhabi in the first tourney. And just like yesterday, he didn't call an official over to check it. Why not? With the rules on drops, why would every player not call over an official in a drop situation? Why not just be sure about it?

Official statement from Augusta.

I am not a tiger fan but the rules allow him to play.
Funny thing is that when I saw the drop I could not believe he did not call over a rules official.

The committee has made a mockery out of rule 33.
Rule 33 talks about whether the golfer should have reasonably known and that is how DQ gets waived.
You can't really say that tiger shouldnt have reasonably known. Reading the hazard rule once and applying it to the facts gives you a bunch of options...none of which tiger took.

Hell. I'm surprised they even assessed him the 2-stroke penalty.
What I don't understand, though, is how he admitted he dropped the ball improperly, then signed an incorrect scorecard, yet he's not being DQ'd for signing an incorrect scorecard.
I seem to recall Michelle Wie getting ousted from a tourney a few years ago for signing an incorrect scorecard or something of that nature.

His scorecard was correct when he signed it. The rules committee even ruled there was no violation while he was still playing. That's why the new non DQ rule was put into place.

It was determined that he did nothing wrong(at the time), so he did not sign an incorrect score card.

I am not a Tiger fan boy and have rooted for him to fail miserably over the past few years, but I don't see the big deal.
Plus, Tiger is not a dumb guy, do you think he would admit to cheating during the interview if he truly thought he broke the rules?
