Tiger Woods apologised last night in a Twitter message for spitting on the 12th green during the final round of the Dubai Desert Classic, an act which brought a fine from the European Tour.
Tournament director Mike Stewart reviewed the incident, seen worldwide on television and on the internet, and decided that the former World No 1 had broken the tour code of conduct.
"The Euro Tour is right, it was inconsiderate to spit like that and I know better. Just wasn't thinking and I want to say I'm sorry," Woods wrote in a message posted on the micro-blogging site.
