  This puts a new wrinkle on things. It appears from the photographic evidence he did the right thing and didn't deserve any penalty at all.

  Hell it looks like he drops in 3 ft. from the spot that he hit his first shot in that camera angle!

  I don't think Tiger broke any f'n rule to begin with.

  Well, I'm willing to be convinced either way. But where was his caddy in all this? "Uhh, chief, just a word?"

  the marks on the ground show how far back he dropped behind his divot from the 1st shot.

   

  large pictures so open them in a new window/tab

  Looks to me like this guy from Atlanta got his photos backwards. That divot says so. But where's the divot from the second shot?  LOL, get Sherlock here, we have the Case of the Missing Divot. :-D

  This photo ought to settle it.  Two things are perfectly clear:

  1. The divots show he moved back on the 2nd shot.
  2. He missed the ding on the 2nd shot.

  You think this has anything to do with the current ding/no ding thing going on? Ding=flagstick hose job; no ding = birdie.  LOL
