2002 Local Rules In Force |
|
A ball lying on a closely-mown area through the green may, without penalty, be moved or may be lifted, cleaned and placed within six inches of where it originally lay, but not nearer the hole and not in a hazard or on a putting green. A player may move or place his ball once and after the ball has been so moved or placed, it is in play. PENALTY FOR BREACH OF LOCAL RULE: Match play: Loss of hole

|
Through the green, a ball which is embedded in its own pitch-mark in the ground, other than in sand, may be lifted without penalty, cleaned and dropped as near as possible to where it lay but not nearer the hole. The ball when dropped must first strike a part of the course through the green. Exeception: A player must not obtain relief under this Local Rule if it is clearly unreasonable for him to play a stroke because of interference by anything other than the condition covered by this local rule. PENALTY FOR BREACH OF LOCAL RULE: Match play: Loss of holeStoke play: Two strokes Peter Harrington |
