Woods will not face a fine from the PGA

On Monday an anonymous PGA Tour official told The Associated Press that Tiger Woods would be fined for his critical statement about John Paramor for rushing final group of the Bridgestone Invitational by putting them on the clock.
Woods said, “That was an erroneous report.” and will not be receiving any fines.

Tuesday Woods was asked if he regretted calling out Paramore and he said, “No. Because he's the one who did it.”

The PGA does not make fine public but Ty Votaw a PGA spokesman confirmed there was no fine issued.

“The information that was conveyed to the reporter was inaccurate,” Votaw said. “There has been no process started with respect to any disciplinary action. Based on the reports we have read, Tiger's comments related to the impact of the decision. We did not read them as being an unreasonable attack or disparaging.”
