bryant but did not clear him of the conviction. to the mast terse in us-- to the masters. turps out that two-stroke penalty tiger woods got could cost him the championship. we are getting down to the wire. i saw umbrellas out there on the greens. how might that impact kind of the closing of this tournament? >> reporter: well, fred, they're still playing now. so that's the good news for the masters tournament. rain doesn't stop these guys until it gets really heavy. then that's when they clear the courses. certainly if there's thunder and lightning but it certainly does affect the game. when it rains a lot, that means that fairways get a little bit more slick, the hazards get a little bit more hazardous. tho though the good news for golfers is the ball sticks a little bit more. so definitely affects strategy. we may see a fewer lower scores
