New Rules Of Golf Decision: Absolving Tiger 18-4
/As I understand it, the new "Decision" in the Rules of Golf to be announced Tuesday provides that, where there is a recording (say, like this one) showing a ball having possibly left its location (like this one) and has possibly come to rest in another location (like this one), the ball will not have been deemed to have moved if the movement was not "discernible" to the "naked eye."
Tiger, you're absolved!
So much for hopes that we might have found a way to make signed scorecards, apparently the last binding document in the world, less-binding should video evidence surface before a tournament's conclusion.
**The other Decisions to be announced include a new clarification of when a ball is deemed to be embedded (25-2/0.5) and the even better 27-2a/1.5 that will allow a player to go forward "approximately" 50 yards without forfeiting the right to hit a provisional.
