Things continue to go awry for Tiger Woods, who was fined for spitting on the 12th green yesterday at the Omega Dubai Desert Classic. The incident was caught by TV cameras, and Woods was found guilty of breaching the European Tour’s code of conduct. The Telegraph notes that the amount of the fine (which won't be disclosed) isn’t nearly as significant as the embarrassing public reprimand, which comes just as the sex-addicted golfer is trying to rehab his image.
