Definition: Stroke, Decision 18-2a/20
This past week, I was playing golf with my high school teammates
and we came across an interesting situation on the third hole.
My friend hit her tee shot in the right rough off the tee and
came to rest in a difficult lie. While taking a few practice
swings my friend accidentally hit her ball. The ball came to
rest about 10 yards up in the fairway. We all thought that since
she hit the ball, the stroke counts and she must play the ball
from its new position. We later found out that this is not correct.
What
is the ruling? |
