Rules Q &A
The newest addition to our Chapter Board of Directors is Linda Holbrook, who will serve as our Golf Education and Player Development Chair. She will be setting up clinics as well as testing our rules of golf IQ.
Here is this week's question:
Q. A player elects to take relief from an immovable obstruction or abnormal ground condition and lifts her ball. She then realizes that the only area in which she may drop under the Rules is such that her ball, when dropped, will almost certainly be unplayable. She replaces her ball and plays it from its original position. What is the ruling?
A. The player was entitled to lift the ball to take relief under Rule 24 or 25. However, by subsequently deciding not to take relief, her right to lift the ball was negated and she incurred a penalty stroke under Rule 18-2a for having lifted her ball in play.
For more information refer to the USGA Rules of Golf, 18-2a/12 Player Entitled to Relief from Condition Lifts Ball; Player Then Replaces Ball and Plays It from Original Position
