<snip>
A controversy-fuelled 77th Masters shows no sign of abating after Tiger Woods was handed a retrospective, two-stroke penalty on Saturday for taking an incorrect drop on the 15th hole of his second round. He had earlier risked disqualification.

Woods's third shot to the hole hit halfway up the flagstick and spun back into the creek in front of the green. At that point, the 37-year-old had three options for his next shot: play it from a designated drop area, play from in line with where the ball last crossed the water hazard or play from the original spot of his third shot.

They could point to a 2011 amendment to the rules of golf as cause not to disqualify Woods: changes were put in place to allow for infringements which came to light via television after a scorecard had been signed. The issue at hand, however, is that Woods himself pointed to what he had done.

The penalty has already caused consternation. Speaking on the Golf Channel, the six-time major winner Nick Faldo said Woods should seriously consider withdrawing himself from the Masters to protect his legacy.

. . . six time winner?


Like he said: 'Rules are rules.' I assume he can live by them.

I'd like to know why the commission's verdict isn't enough for Faldo? Why even have them rule, then?


here is the statement from the committee on the 2 shot penalty applied to Tigers score . . .
