Tiger disqualified?

No I was referring to him being about +400 at the start of the tourney. What I was saying is the 6-1 is +200 more and I would expect it to be much more given he is 5 shots back and has 36 to play. Now he is definitely capable, I just thought the 6-1 odds should be more.
I doubt I understand it all. If people are in an uproar over this then they need to be asking Arnold Palmer to give up one of his Masters wins. I doubt many even know what I am talking about.
Integrity of the game my ass. Tiger may be many things but I will side with him on this one. If he thought he intentionally broke a rule he would DQ himself. Only he knows this and I think the penalty is rather severe.
Ok, just caught this and heard on the Golf Channel that there were two calls. So the Masters gets the first, reviews it himself while Tiger is still playing and just stays mum about it. It's only after the second call, which references the interview, that they actually act on it. Ummm, would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for that first discussion by Augusta officials. And then they get the second call and think, shoot others are noticing.
Don't blame Tiger at all, and calls for him to dq himself are bogus. Point the finger at the golf club who could have corrected this immediately before he signed his scorecard.
Would love to hear the lockeroom talk from the other Pros about the CHEETAW. Doesn't even have the balls to man up and DQ himself. What a piece of shit. How can anybody root for him? I just don't get it.
Because they don't have rights to show a live shot I think....plus nobody out there now has any shot
See what u are saying earlier...still think he is favorite not to implode which plenty of the guys ahead of him will while he most likely goes red red

USGA isn't the governing body of this event. Masters has their own rule committee...I think most people at least this one are rooting for monetary reasons and not fandom.
:mj07:
Usga had nothing to do with the ruling.
Don't let facts get in the way of the Tiger hating.
I like the rules of the game which he admitted to breaking and improving his lie. Then signs an incorrect scorecard. Total Bullshit.
And to answer your question no I have never cared for him because he is an asshole.
Fair enough.
At the end of the day its still golf and who really gives a shit. :shrug:
Unless you can prove Tiger did it on purpose to skate the rules, I don't see how you can actually believe he would DQ himself.
If you want to be upset at anyone, be upset at the Augusta Officials who could have nipped this in the bud when it was first brought to their attention.

If you know the rules, then read 33-7/4.5
The committee ruled on the infraction and ruled accordingly. Tiger also states he was not aware he violated any rule at the time. By him saying this the DQ part gets taken out of the equation. If he knowingly violated a rule intentionally he would have DQ'd himself.
The committee jacked this one up. Had they ruled accordingly on Friday then he would have corrected the score card and signed it. They told him of no such violation.
