Do you know your golf etiquette?
Preventing Unnecessary Damage:
- Players should avoid causing damage to the course by removing divots when taking practice swings or by hitting the head of a club into the ground, whether in anger or for any other reason.
- Players should ensure that no damage is done to the putting green when putting down bags or the flagstick.
- In order to avoid damaging the hole, players and caddies should not stand too close to the hole and should take care during the handling of the flagstick and the removal of a ball from the hole. The head of a club should not be used to remove a ball from the hole.
- Players should not lean on their clubs when on the putting green, particularly when removing the ball from the hole.
- The flagstick should be properly replaced in the hole before the players leave the putting green.
- Local notices regulating the movement of golf carts should be strictly observed.
Rule Review
Rule 13-2: Improving Lie, Area of Intended Stance or Swing, or Line of Play
A player must not improve or allow to be improved:
- the position or lie of his ball,
- the area of his intended stance or swing,
- his line of play or a reasonable extension of that line beyond the hole, or
- the area in which he is to drop or place a ball, by any of the following actions:
- moving, bending or breaking anything growing or fixed (including immovable obstructions and objects defining out of bounds),
- creating or eliminating irregularities of surface,
- removing or pressing down sand, loose soil, replaced divots or other cut turf placed in position, or
- removing dew, frost or water.
However, the player incurs no penalty if the action occurs:
- in fairly taking his stance,
- in making a stroke or the backward movement of his club for a stroke and the stroke is made,
- on the teeing ground in creating or eliminating irregularities of surface (Rule 11-1), or
- on the putting green in removing sand and loose soil or in repairing damage (Rule 16-1).
- The club may be grounded only lightly and must not be pressed on the ground
