Linda Holbrook
Match Play Differences
 
Last week, our Chapter's Education Chair - Linda Holbrook - shared with us 'Match Play Simplified.'  This week, take a look at the differences in rules between match play and other formats.  Read on....
Rules IQ &A

 

10-1c/2 Player Requested to Lift Ball Due to Interference Plays Out of Turn Instead

 

Q: In match play, A's ball is on B's line of putt. B requests A to lift her ball under Rule 22-2.  Instead of complying with the request, A putts out of turn.  Does A lose the hole for a breach of Rule 22-2 or does Rule 10-1c apply, in which case there would be no penalty but B would have the right to require A to replay the stroke in correct order?

 

A: Rule 10-1c governs.
