Following Saturday's incident in which Tiger Woods was accused of disturbing playing partner Sergio Garcia making a shot at the par-5 second, the world No.1's excuse has been questioned.
Woods claimed the marshals stewarding the comeptition told him Garcia had played his shot and that he was allowed to continue.
