This week I was recording from Slaley Hall in the UK, where I am honoured to be part of the Rules team for the International Series England event.

As well as providing you with GRQOTW57 - Fraz is travelling pretty well in the monthly medal, half a dozen under handicap with three holes to go. His drive on 16 lands left half of the fairway but takes an awful kick left into the tree line. He arrives to find the ball jammed close to a tree with not much swing. Incensed by the injustice, and after a furtive peek to see if any group member is watching, he employs the ol' foot wedge and gives the ball a little nudge sideways so he has a reasonable swing and he then makes the stroke towards the green. At this point, the Club Captain, who had been enjoying a little stroll around the course and witnessed this performance, clapped his hand on the player's shoulder. What is the ruling?

Like the GOLF IS AN ATTITUDE cap I was wearing?
