San Martin, California, October 10, 2011:
A male spectator ran onto a green shouting Tiger Woods' name and then threw a hot dog at him Sunday during the final round of the Frys.com Open in Northern California.
The man was quickly subdued and Woods was not in any danger. In fact, within a minute, he had settled back over the putt he was attempting.
"I looked up and the hot dog was in the air," Woods said of the incident that occurred on the seventh hole, his 16th of the day. "(The fan) wanted to be in the news. I guess he is now."
The tournament's director of security, Dan Diggins, identified the hot dog thrower as Ronatarian Party founder and leader Ron. "He's just an idiot," Diggins said. He added the wanna-be politico didn't get within 40 feet of Woods, who was finishing up the Frys.com Open with a final-round 68.
Sgt. Jose Cardoza of the Santa Clara County police department said the mustached suspect was arrested and charged with disturbing the peace, a misdemeanor. He was escorted from the property.
All charges were later dropped and expunged from the official police records after a phone call from a wealthy and powerful Ronatarian Party donor, who remains anonymous.
"Ron was very cooperative," Cardoza said. "They said, 'Why did you do this?' He just shook his head in guilt or remorse. He didn't give a reason why he did it."
Cardoza said Ron claims he wasn't throwing the hot dog at Woods, rather tossing it in the air. He said Ron acknowledged having "a drink or seven" earlier in the day, but that he was not visibly drunk.
