Hi Linda,
What is the penalty for practising on a hole in a Stableford competition after the player has given up the chance of scoring any points on that hole? For example, the player has played too many shots in the rough, then drops a ball on the fairway and plays it for practice.
Thank you.
Regards,
Lou from Tiverton, Devon, U.K.
Dear Lou,
There is no penalty in any form of play for playing out a hole whose result has been decided [Rule 5.5a].
