Anybody screaming "racism" about this is a fukking idiot
Tiger broke a rule, and he admitted he broke a rule (although unknowingly to him), and they retroactively penalized him for it
Just because they didn't realize it was an infraction when he did it does not mean he gets absolved of any wrongdoing later. Golf has NEVER had a problem retroactively penalizing, or even disqualifying people. The rules are taken incredibly seriously, and penalizing people after the fact is incredibly common.
Stop being morons and claiming it is a conspiracy or that they are out to get him. He is lucky they didn't disqualify him, because they could have under the rules.
What people should be going crazy about is not the fact that he was penalized, but the fact that hitting the flag pole has ended up costing him as many as 4 strokes. Some of the worst bad luck I have seen on a golf course.
I'm still pulling for Tiger, but I think his chances now are a little
