    Exactly, seems to be different rules for different players.
    If you have a losing record at Reds games, please stop going.

    I agree, it is different rules. When other players do the exact same thing, Rick Reilly doesn't take the time to call them out in their column. And discussion forums don't have threads talking about it. People's comments here are assuming Tiger is the only one doing it because he's the only one it's reported about. And I have a hard time believing any serious golf tournament is going to "stroke" players for doing getting angry on the golf course.

    Stroke him 2 strokes for unsportsman like conduct and you will see an end to Tiger's theatrics.

    I am surprised the Tiger apologists aren't out in force, defending the indefensible. I mean, doesn't everyone get upset with their drive and fling their driver into the crowd? Actually, no they don't.

    I think the crowd should've been able to keep the driver. That would've been a nice penalty in this case. Well, maybe not, since Tiger hits that club like garbage most of the time.

    I'm a Tiger apologist to some degree, but this was pretty bad. I don't mind the cursing, but flinging his club off the ground and into the crowd is indefensible.
