Rule 23: Loose Impediments
I was playing in a high school match a few days ago
and on the third hole my opponent hit a chip shot from the deep
rough behind the green. While her ball was still moving, she
removed a leaf that was three feet behind the hole. Her ball
never reached the spot where the leaf was at rest, but our coach
said it was a penalty because the leaf was moved while the ball
was in motion. Was
this correct? |
