The player may, without penalty, touch or move sand to find or identify the ball only if the ball is believed to lie in a bunker. True or False? Answer The player may, without penalty, touch or move sand to find or identify the ball when it lies in a bunker, or anywhere on the course.

The gross score of at least one partner must be entered on the scorecard. 2. There is no penalty for entering more than one partner’s score on the scorecard. 3.
