from Lou in New Jersey:
But, can Annie clean her ball?
Answer: No. When
you are asked to lift a ball because it interferes with play you are not
permitted to clean it [Rule 22-2].
from Lulu in Texas:
Annie can only lift her ball if the other player request it
be lifted. She may not decide on her own that it interferes.
Answer: Your
understanding is correct. A player who lifts a ball that interferes with play
without being asked to do so incurs a one-stroke penalty [Rule 22-2, Note 1].
