AUGUSTA, Ga., April 13 (UPI) -- Officials at the Masters said they had initially determined Tiger Woods had complied with the rules when he took an improper drop on the 15th hole Friday.
Woods faced possible disqualification from the tournament for dropping the ball in the wrong spot but officials said he did not sign an improper scorecard because he had been given the green light to finish the round after the 1-stroke drop, the Masters Competition Committee said in a written statement.
