@glowgolfer @glowgolfer No, If you read the section on taking relief abnormal ground conditions, such as GUR, (Rule 25-1b) you will see the following words; "Through the Green: If the ball lies through the green, the player must lift the ball and drop it, without penalty, within one club-length o...

  @glowgolfer This is one of those situations where you have to know all the facts of the situation before you can make a ruling. Read the Exception to Rule 24-2b, Relief from Immovable Obstruction and you will see that you cannot claim relief if the interference by an immovable obstruction would o...

  @andersmic This is hard to describe without a diagram, but remember that the player must drop the ball within one club-length of the nearest point of relief, not nearer the hole. This means that the imaginary arc in which the player may drop their ball will be at an angle running approximately so...

  @LRP6 This was removed from Rule 24-2b in 2000. It was replaced by Note 3: "The Committee may make a Local Rule stating that the player must determine the nearest point of relief without crossing over, through or under the obstruction."

  I am surprised that no-one has mentioned that CBS Sports (and most of the author's comments below) have got the applicable Rule wrong. The available relief was not under Rule 25-1, Abnormal Ground Condition, but Rule 24-2, Immovable Obstruction. If the player states that he could hit the sprinkle...

@fcdiaz1 Of course you incur a penalty if you deem your ball unplayable. Otherwise players would use this option every time they had a lie that they did not fancy. Check my video again at 30 seconds, or better still read Rule 28, one of the shortest Rules in the book.

  @LRP6 Unless there is a Local Rule stating that the net is an integral part of the course then free relief is available from it, if it interferes with the player's lie, stance or area of intended swing (Rule 24-2). If a player deems their ball unplayable and takes the option of dropping it within...

  Slattedj,

  That's why there are three options for an unplayable ball, Rule 28. If you cannot drop within two clublengths, or on the line from the flagstick through the ball where the ball lies, then you have to go back to where you made your last stroke from, under penalty of one stroke.

@Ninjaw78 Yes, at any time a player may choose to play a ball as nearly as possible at the spot from which the original ball was last played, i.e., proceed under penalty of stroke and distance (Rule 27-1), but this is also one of the options listed in both taking relief from a water hazard (Rule ...

  @Ninjaw78 The best option will vary with the circumstances. In most cases the best option in taking relief from a lateral water hazard may be to drop a ball within two clublengths of the point where the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard, not nearer the hole. Otherwise, the player will be...

  yimboxer 2,

  Water hazards are defined by yellow stakes and/or lines, lateral water hazards are defined by red stakes and.or line.

  Answering the previous query from sportbob, if one of the options is not available to the player is not playable then obviously the player has to choose another opti...

A Committee may define any area as a (lateral) water hazard with (red) yellow stakes and/or lines even if it does not contain water. Nota all hazards are (lateral) water hazards; sand bunkers are also hazards in the Rules of Golf..

  @82PeRK No, you should not have written, "tree hazard", as there is no such thing in golf. You should have written, "lateral water hazard with trees inside and outside the hazard".

  @82PeRK

  The first point to note is that trees on a course are not hazards. The only hazards in the Rules of Golf are water hazards (yellow stakes and/or lines), lateral water hazards, (red stakes and/or lines) and sand bunkers.

  However, Rule 27-1 states that at any time, a player may, under pen...
