Tiger Woods hit with 2-stroke penalty at the Masters for illegal drop, no DQ
The game of golf is the last bastion of chivalry in modern day. Golf history is full of guys (and gals) calling penalties on themselves whether anyone else knew of the violation. Tiger signed an inaccurate scorecard but the rules committe is offering him a weak out on it. He shouldn't take it. His off course reputation is already shot, but he has a chance here to enhance is on course legacy.
If you don't follow golf, it's hard to grasp the implications here.
