Taken from the R & A Decisions on the Rules of Golf 2008-2009
Rule 18-2a/19 Ball Moved Accidentally by Practice Swing Prior to Tee Shot
Q: Before playing from the teeing ground, a player took a practice swing, in the course of which he accidentally struck and moved the teed ball with his club.
Did the player play a stroke or incur a penalty? A: The player did not make a stroke – see Definition of “Stroke”. Since the ball was not in play – see Definition of “Ball in Play” – he incurred no penalty under Rule 18-2a. The player must put a ball into play from the teeing ground.
SMOKEFREE TIP OF THE WEEK By making your home and car smoke free you are supporting smoke free environments.
