He's almost the best player not to win a major in the past four years.

It's crazy that if Tiger didn't hit a perfect shot none of this would have happened.
...turned into a 4 shot swing

Yes, If I am going into the hazard to play a ball where I think my best option is to play the ball (even with grounding my club) and I tell my competitor that "Hey, I am going to play this ball and I will have to ground my club"
I will be assessed the penalty no matter if I actually ground it or not.
Not everything has an intent element.
Grounding your club in a hazard is a black and white rule. You either committed the infraction or you did not.

I am just shocked at what took place.. Honestly in shock .. that and I have nothing else to do right now
Haha fair enough. I don't think he cheated at all. It's not like he made it any easier on himself.

If they announce that they intend to THEY CERTAINLY DO get penalized
So if I announce I am going to kick my ball out from behind a tree but I don't, I get penalized?

Again this is where the HD TV rule can be of a great asset. But if its me and you playing and I am in the hazard and I go play the shot and I come out and say that I grounded my club (although I actually did not) I am penalized.

no hd involved here. if you 100% do not ground your club but you intended to, i do not think there is a penalty.

If you willing say that you cheated although you did not actually cheat, OF COURSE YOU GET PENALIZED FOR IT

If I am board at work tomorrow I will call the USGA and see if I can get a decision on this scenario

I think Tiger was being tongue in cheek when he said he moved back 2 feet. Seriously. Even pros aren't that precise on their shots.
And also, how many pros try to drop into their divot in situations like this? If they are not, then they are all cheaters. For people that practice drops to be able to pinpoint where they are going to land, I think they all aim for just merely close to the original spot.

First of all 2D cameras suck at capturing this type of thing ...
Yet Johnny 20handicapper was able to get the look and call in to report an "illegal drop".
The Tiger hate is sad.

I just want to make sure I get this right. Even though the R&A, the USGA, and the PGA of America said the ruling and handling of the ruling was correct, he should be DQd because you said so.
Is that what you're saying?

at what point in any post round interview has Tiger shown any humor or made tongue-in-cheek comments?

Dont know why people keep saying this

theres the comment.
He used the first shot to judge distance much like a player would watch the person whos out to judge a green. He was gonna put it higher than he wanted to if he missed the pin so he intentionally went back to gain an advantage. No laughing no joking all serious about why he decided to go back to his original lie instead of the drop area.
