GOT A CLUBLAND STORY - Submit it here https://forms.gle/Jga9wNrnwUVFUQD98

GRQOTW 97

Unfortunately Stuart got some bad Rules advice, which meant that he incurred a one stroke penalty in stroke play and needed to replace his ball on the correct spot.

Stuart would also incur a one stroke penalty in match play, but Blakey could choose to ignore this breach, since it was his bad advice that caused the Rules imbroglio in the first case.

Stuart 'Podcast' McPhee hosts Episode 98 and has a special guest of Marcela Smith from Girlfriends Guide to Golf.

They talk about what Marcela thinks is the four of the most misunderstood Rules in golf.

Marcela also brings two Clubland stories to the table, and a GRQOTW.

GRQOTW 98 -

Sharon and Nina are playing in an individual stroke play tournament at Santaluz Golf Club, with two other competitors in their foursome. Sharon pulls her tee shot on the 8th hole and thinks she will find her ball in the bushes. After the other ladies tee off, Sharon starts looking for and finds her ball in about 90 seconds. Her ball is just beyond a white OB stake. Not wanting to go all the way back to the tee, Sharon assumes she can use the model local rule E-5 and drop a ball into the fairway for a two stroke penalty, which she does.

The other ladies weren’t aware that Sharon’s ball was found out of bounds until Sharon casually mentioned it on the 9th tee (which is across a long street and a great distance from the 8th hole). At that time, the other ladies informed Sharon that if her ball was OB she would not be allowed to drop it into the fairway, as Model Local Rule E-5 was not in effect at that course. Since Sharon didn’t want to slow down the group behind her, she said she would take an 8 on the hole and move on.

What’s the ruling?
