Linda–
Two balls lie in a fairway on a dogleg left hole. The right ball is slightly ahead of the left ball in relation to the fairway, but the left ball is closer to the hole because of the dogleg. Who is away?
Thanks,
Lou
Dear Lou,
The ball farther from the hole is the ball that should be played first [Rule 10b]. So in your scenario, the player whose ball is on the right is away and will play first.
