Woods' dogged stalker takes spotlight off victor Molder

A FAN who threw a hot dog at Tiger Woods and missed during Sunday’s final round of the Frys

A FAN who threw a hot dog at Tiger Woods and missed during Sunday’s final round of the Frys.com Open was arrested by local police, officials said. As Woods lined up a 19-foot birdie putt at the par-three seventh hole, his 16th of the day, the man ran onto the edge of the green at CordeValle Golf Club shouting: “Tiger, Tiger” before hurling the hot dog into the air.

The man never got closer than 40 feet to Woods, according to Dan Diggins, the tournaments head of security. He immediately fell to the ground and allowed himself to be arrested. He was then escorted off the course.

“I guess he wanted to be in the news,” Woods said after his final round 68 saw him finish tied for 30th. Bryce Molder won the tournament, as he outlasted Briny Baird to finally prevail on the sixth extra play-off hole for the first victory of his career.
