Yes we mush forgive the #1 player in the world for not knowing the rules of his own sport. You are pretty f'n lazy if you can't read a rule book. -- nm - Valar Morghulis Apr 13, 07:15 9
- There are thousands of rules and it's not easy to know them all. Shit, even umpires and refs get rules wrong and that's their only job. -- nm - Krusty Apr 13, 07:32 8
  - this is not obscure. this is a basic rule. but even if it wasn't, it doesn't matter -- nm - charlie Apr 13, 07:33 7
    - It's crap. If they don't catch it when it happens it's too bad and the golfer gets to keep the error. Complete crap that fans can call in after the - Krusty Apr 13, 07:40 6
      - The fan called in before the round was over. The penalty was only applied after Tiger's interview -- nm - Roger More Apr 13, 07:46
      - that's not what happened here. he violated a rule that he knew or should have known -- nm - charlie Apr 13, 07:41 4
        
        It is what happened. He wasn't penalized until the watched video after he was sitting home. What sport does that? What sport goes back to the tape - Krusty Apr 13, 07:46 3
        
        I stand sort of corrected. They were fine with the drop after watching the video and only penalized him after his statement about the drop. - Krusty Apr 13, 07:49 2
        
        it will be awesome going forward when tiger uses NO COMMENT for every interview. PGA can reap what they sow -- nm - Beaker Apr 13, 07:57 1
