Linda:
Please help with this question. Players A and B are
teammates in an alternate shot format tournament. Player A is the first
to hit from the tee, and he promptly launches one out of bounds. Who hits
the next shot from the tee?
Thanks.
Lou from West Virginia
Dear Lou,
Player A has had his turn. Since his shot went out of bounds
from the tee, Player B will hit the next shot from the tee, and he may re-tee
his ball. Player B’s tee shot is the team’s third shot on the hole.
In a mixed tournament, if Player A is a male hitting the tee
shot out of bounds, his female partner will have to hit the next shot from the men’s
teeing ground [Decision 29/2].
