Hi Linda,
I had a question about practice during competition. Can you practiced putts on last hole played in a stableford competition?
Thank you,
Lou Lou
Dear Lou Lou,
Stablefords are a form of stroke play, so stroke play rules will apply. Accordingly, competitors in a Stableford competition are permitted to practice putting or chipping on or near the putting green of the last hole played or the teeing ground of the next hole to be played. Players are not permitted to practice in a hazard. Nor are they permitted to practice if doing so would delay play for anyone [Rule 7-2].
Linda
