Those "tests" are the reason why I usually ignore them. What happened in this
position is absolutely non-reproducable because Tiger DOES see the stalemate. I
let GT2/aggr now analyze for >5min and *never* considered taking on f2. As I see
on the homepage
"Time-controls: Mixed. Mostly Blitz (5m+1s); a lot of Rapids (10m+1s)" there is
only one explanation possible IMO:
At least Tiger had only 1 sec or even less and played that weird move within
milliseconds.

Here is the output *I* get here, one more reason why those short time controls
produce strange results, and, even worse, strange games like this one:
