Linda,
I play on a team where my partner and I play a better ball match against our opponents, and each of us also plays an individual match.
During today's match play we had the following situation:
Susie had lost her individual match, but she and her opponent were still playing for the team better ball. Her opponent played a wrong ball, which was her partner’s ball. Her partner realized it before she also played the wrong ball.
Here is what we thought was the correct rule and way to handle the situation:
The person who played the wrong ball was disqualified from that hole. Her partner however was not. The partner's ball was replaced and she played her correct ball with no penalty.
How did we do?
Lulu
Dear Lulu,
You followed Rule 30-3c to the letter. Well done!
Linda
