Golf Rules

Last Month’s Question –

In Four-Ball stroke play with side A-B and side C-D playing together, after A plays from the 2nd teeing area, but before any other player plays, B discovers that B has mistakenly carried fifteen clubs from the start due to a club that they failed to remove at the range before the round. What is the ruling?

Answer –

Both A and B get the general penalty: loss of hole.

This Month’s Question –

In Four-Ball match play with side A-B, A holes out. Before B holes out, A practices putting on the fringe of the putting green without helping B's play or hurting the opponent's play. What is the ruling?
