  "account": "Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo was disqualified from a pre-qualifying golf tournament in Oklahoma due to inaccuracies on his scorecard, according to reports from GOLF.com. The 46-year-old played in a 54-hole tournament at the Club at Forest Ridge in Broken Arrow, but finished with scores of 76, 75, and 74, falling short of advancing by three strokes. Tournament officials discovered discrepancies on the final round's scorecard, dated October 2nd. A South Central PGA official noted that Romo made bogeys on the 16th and 17th holes, but his signed scorecard listed pars for both holes. Under golf rules, a player who signs a scorecard with an incorrect score and fails to correct it within the allowed time is disqualified. Romo acknowledged his mistake and praised the tournament organizers. The disqualification occurred on the same day CBS announced Romo was leaving their NFL broadcast team after nine years. Romo joined CBS as an NFL analyst in 2017, following his 13-year career with the Dallas Cowboys. Despite his golf struggles, he has remained active in the sport, participating in PGA Tour events and qualifying tournaments.",
