London, May.2 (ANI): A senior tour player David Eger has reportedly called up the Augusta Masters tournament organizers to flag golfer Tiger Woods' incorrect drop shot and explained how he spotted Woods' discrepancy on television.
The Augusta organizers initially declined any rule breach but Woods confessed that he dropped his ball two yards back in his post-round interview, the Mirror reports.
The whistleblower said that he saw a divot hole as the shot was not there the first time but appeared on screen the second time in Woods' second round in the Masters.
Woods was given a two-shot penalty but because Eger, the former tournament director for both the USGA and the PGA tour, had reported the incident and no action had been taken as Woods was not shown the evidence before he signed the card , the usual course of disqualification was not taken, the report added.
