And again and again and a. Again a. A. Quot a. A pea tour official George to u full did just that last sunday. He was on the grounds of the tag course where the Byron Nelson Golf classic was being played. But at the time he was silting in. A trailer and watching Abc tvs coverage along with millions of. Others. A. -. A a a a a.  saw Tom Kite put his Ted Hall on Iso 11 into a a water Hanking the left Side. Of the Fairway. Then he rolled the tape Back and watched it again then he. Made Kite the first golfer a a penalized As the result of a new really boneheaded Lour policy. That s right. After clogging the arteries of proles is Ozial football instant replay has turned up in Golf that a right. After clogging the. Well you get the Quot message., it a Quot a a a a a a /.v. One of the most enduring charms of Golf is that players still Call their own. Fouls even lit the profess Ion a i level. It is inconceivable that Bill Laimbeer for instance has Ever called a foul on himself during any basketball game anywhere even in the driveway against his own kids but he also plays Golf to a 2 hah Deap or so and you can bet he has claimed every foul he Ever had coming on the Golf course. Indeed golfers have been doing so Slihee the scots first shaped the game in their own torturous image and it is an anachronism that has survived for a reason. It makes for less whirling less time wasting and a. Here is the payoff a less cheating t reminds you. Of. How some perceptive soul explained the difference he tween the British and american Legal systems they have fewer Laws but they behave much better. They a also have fewer lawyers.  a a a. A. Unfortunately with Vars already in almost every. Home in America and now on the grounds of every u pea eve Clit his quaint practice of pros calling their Jim Zitke own fouls is headed the Way of the British Empire and Woods made of Wood. The immediate background on golfs latest flub is this on the final Hole of the second round at the Dora i open in Early March Paul Azinger hit a Ball into the water and instead of taking a drop took off his socks and shoes. ,. He stepped into the Lake and wedged the Ball Back into the Fairway hit the next wedge close to the pin and escaped with an improbable Par. Generally uplifting stuff. Except that a viev ver in. Colorado a fair go fur in his own right saw it otherwise lie saw Azinger wriggling his toes into the pebbles and mud before taking a swing then watched it again. Then he picked up the phone and told tour officials that by doing so Azinger had broken a Rule by improving his lie. Quot. Upon further review the phone in pro a he actually was a pro at a municipal Golf course turned out to be right. V ��1 Azinger was unaware that he had committed a violation and signed a scorecard that did not include any penalty strokes for thethis Hole because he signed a scorecard that was incorrect Azinger was disqualified he was in mid round and in Contention when officials pulled him. Off the course the next Day. He was devastated but he did not protest. Golfers Are like that. On the Good Side the whole hurried Way m which the situation was handled caused Golf officials to take another look at the rules. They had the right idea a catch the violation during a round inform the player and prevent him from signing an incorrect card a hut they chose the wrong tool a instant replay. In kites ease,.he had conferred with playing  Phil Black mar after d limping the tee shot into the. Vater Iohd then picked but a spot adjacent to lie re it went in to drop a Ball and play his Rexf shot a Butell meanwhile watched the same shot again and again no doubt acid decided it had never crossed land. He radioed that information to an on course official who informed Kite. A a  a a Kite went Back to the tee. And. In the absence of an immediate ruling played both balls he scored b with the Hall he played from the tee 5 with the one dropped alongside the water. Upon further review a euphemism roundly hated by football fans that Golf watchers will soon learn to dread the double bogey 6 stood. A  a a Kite t he third round Leader of the Tourn a m e n to already had dropped two strokes to Par and was one behind the Leader when he deep fixed the tee shot. He finished five strokes Back of eventual Winner Nick Price. He called the use of replay a a cop out a but did hot protest the ruling. Then he added the ruling a did no to have anything to do with the Way i  right. A \ a. In 1978, the same Toni Kite was leading a tournament in Pinehurst  standing on the Green in a tournament he would eventually lose by a single stroke. He had marked his putt with a Coin and after replacing the Ball and soling his Putter behind it he saw the Ball move a fraction of an Inch. No one else saw it move but him. Neither his playing partners nor the to audience tuning in Kite called a one stroke penalty on himself. He did no to need a replay , him what was the right thing to do then. A. A a. A a a a a a. A a. And he does t need one now. The associated press from Page 24 As possible and set up our Halfe ourt offence a a Edwards said.
