Some protected cactus/cacti? you are supposed to leave the ball embedded because removing it does much more damage. At least thats what I was told.

There are some courses I have played where areas are marked as sensitive. You are not allowed under any circumstances to enter let alone play out of them. The local rule is to play according to rule 36 and you are reminded of these areas on the back of the score card. Oceanside Muni and Woods Valley (both San Diego county) are two that come immediately to mind.

Zinger's Comments on Tiger's Behavior

Paul Azinger has checked in on Tiger's behavior last weekend. In part he said:

“Tiger’s antics this week were an embarrassment to the game, to the membership at Augusta,” Azinger said. “I was really disappointed to see him carry on that way. He’s not trying to endear himself to anybody.

“I thought he acted like the south end of a northbound mule.”

There was some spec (Twitter?) the PGA would be handing TW a nice healthy fine. But, $20K, is not going to motivate him too terribly much.

Face facts. Betting golf is frivolous.
Betting golf to you is frivolous... Betting golf to me is profitable.
