Answer to a question; (Google search) What Is the Penalty for Hitting Someone Else's Ball in Golf?
- Stroke Play. The standard penalty for playing the wrong ball during stroke play is the loss of two strokes.
- Match Play. A player who hits someone else’s ball in match play loses the hole, according to Rule 15-3a
Question 2. Relates to a ball on the track on number 9. . I am not a referee, so I stand to be corrected, but my understanding is. A ball coming to rest on the track, can be dropped from the track and played from the drop zone, (mowed area at the bottom front of the track. No penalty) The bank area above and below the metal roadway. You have the option to play the ball from where it lies, or take a drop and play it as above, but in this case a penalty shot must be counted, as the bank is not the track
If I've messed this up, please forgive me, no doubt I will be corrected before next week. That being the case, there will be a better forum for answering these questions than What's On
Have a great weekend
