Tiger Woods came to the 2013 Masters while the hottest player in the planet, with his fate apparently arranged with the opportunity to wear still another green coat. And while the week's motion isn't at Augusta National, this indicates significantly more than likely that Woods will leave the hallowed program without another name to his namea'something that will likely be discussed in the same sentence while the term "bizarre, two-stroke penalty." Woods was penalized two images for an incorrect fall led to an illegal chance on the hole, which led to on the 2nd day him signing an incorrect scorecard. The greatest controversy surrounding it all was that, as a result of some loophole, Woods was only punished the two-shot penalty. That may seem such as a severe penalty by itself, but set alongside the alternative that it seemed Woods was lined upa'disqualificationa'it all ended nicely for the golf tale. Which, in itself, has resulted in more controversy for Masters authorities. Reason indicate that when Woods did separate the drop rule, then since the rule book indicates he must have been disqualified. If the rule wasn't broken by him, then he did face any punishment at all, didn't sign an incorrect scorecard and should not strike an illegal picture. Claire Redington/Getty Images The fact he has been tried indicates that the star didAin fact break the rules, however the contest officials were wary of the situation on hand.AAfter all, Woods is the draw card to the tournamenta'he is the marquee playera'and disqualifying him from any action will mean that the Masters lost a number of it is appeal and appeal from the everyday supporters who simply follow Woods. And as a side point, who was the TV viewer who snitched on Tiger? We will never realize that for certain and I'm not one attempting to distribute cynicism.AIn truth, what needs to occur is not cynicism but closure.AThe controversy and speculation surrounding Woods needs to come calmly to an enda'regardless of who was "more right." He made a poor drop, he was tried for ita'end of story. With this debate and speculation in what may have been whilst the Masters isn't performing Woods any favors. Actually, it is detracting from his good year so far and hurting his image as the greatest player currently playing the game today. Mark Cannon/Getty Photographs Woods has been nothing lacking excellent in 2013a'winning numerous events and showcasing some truly outstanding hitting. He has not shot negative times, he's not fallen in to the inconsistencies that affected his sport (and his head) for so a long time. Tiger has earned himself the No. 1 rating in the world from Rory McIlroya'earning himself a shocking 194 things in 2013 up to now (per Official World Golf Ranking). By comparison, only two other participants in the top 50 have acquired 100 factors or more, and neither of these are even near Woods' 194, or the No. 1 rank that the American star now finds herself in. Whether Woods would have won the Masters or not with no two-stroke penalty is something which we will speculate on and should never know. For each time that we do, we eliminate the outstanding performances of Woods in 2013 and how spectacular his rise back to the top of the world has been. Even when he doesn't have a brand new green hat to add to his selection. Hit me on Twitter for more sports goodness:
