Golf Rules
Previous Question –
A player removes a broken tee touching their ball in the general area causing the ball to move; there is a penalty of one stroke and the ball must be replaced on its original spot. True or False?
Answer –
False. The broken tee is a movable obstruction (man-made), therefore there is no penalty for removing it. The ball must be replaced on its original spot.
This Month’s Question –
In Four-Ball stroke play with side A-B, A picks up while B completes the hole. The marker attributes the score for the hole to A and records no score for B. The better ball score is correct. The scorecard is certified and returned to the Committee. What is the ruling?
