J.B. Holmes started his final round at the WGC-Cadillac Championship in a head-scratching manner, for himself and everyone else following along. After Holmes' opening tee shot found the hazard, the 33-year-old took an incorrect drop, which a rules official later said was a "serious breach." Holmes took an "opposite margin" drop that meant he had to drop within two club lengths of the hazard, but he instead went back about 25 yards to hit his next shot. A rules official told him on the green about his error. The on-course reporter (in the video below) summarizes it as saying Holmes took the hybrid option, combining two different drop options into one. Holmes was penalized two strokes and went back to where his original drop was to finish the hole. If he would have teed off on the second hole without correcting his mistake he would have been disqualified. Holmes double-bogeyed the par-5 and finished with an 8-over 80 and in 59th place.

I would have thought if guys like this are struggling for form they would play a lot more often. Is it that they have enough money and there is no motivation. Just a thought/question.

So what I'm saying is most players only tend to play about 20 a year, it just depends on what suits their schedule and sponsors, or how they want to prepare for majors etc etc. It wouldn't be down to money or form as to where or when they play.... That's my take on it anyway!
