All washed up...! The road grit is gone and it sits waiting for some nicer weather. |
A Tiger Woods penalty drop has created all kinds of controversy. |
The more contested controversy is whether or not he should be disqualified from playing the final two rounds. There is precedent that says he should be disqualified. The rules committee has now created what many are calling a new precedent (likely to be known as the Tiger rule, going forward) and is allowing Tiger to play the final two rounds.
The controversy is ongoing. We'll see what transpires.
Easton is soon to be walking on his own. |
He is a monkey though! He loves to climb the family cat tree....and he does this over and over and over. |
The family cat can be seen (tail hanging out) in her safe house. With Easton sharing her cat tree, she keeps patient with him. |

FYI: As of this writing, most golf annalists (including several former PGA players) believe Tiger should take the high road and remove himself from playing the final two rounds of The Masters. It seems Tiger has opted to continue play. More controversy will follow his decision. I remain tuned to this bit of news.
Thanks for dropping by.
Interesting golf controversy, Rene.
ReplyDeleteI watched Tiger's drop at the time and no one said a thing. The Master's Rules Committee has stated that they reviewed Tiger's drop BEFORE he finished his round and did not assess a penalty and waived the whole signing-an-incorrect-scorecard thing.
The rule the Masters is using is a fairly new one and many players are supporting the decision as fair and equitable.
I'll be interested to see how Tiger's play is affected by all of this - will he suffer because of it or will he play even better??
Agreed Rick! A precedent has now been set and it will, likely, be known as the Tiger precedent going forward.
ReplyDeleteThere is a whack of disagreement in the golf world about the ruling though!!!!
What a great post and photos. Thank you so much for sharing. Bonjour de Montreal!
ReplyDeleteHi Rene, in all the excitement about Tiger, I forgot the more important stuff - great photos of Easton climbing in the Cat Tree. I wonder if the cat would give Easton a penalty for that??
ReplyDeleteCrazy that a fan watching TV, calls in a complaint...and a Player gets a two stroke penalty! Only in golf!
