Barton Cup Into Semi Final

“Hats” off to the Barton Cup side who secured a place in semi finals by beating a very strong Corrstown G.C. in appalling weather conditions last Friday evening. Yet again the side were drawn away and after a lot of thought and debate amongst the selectors they opted for some new faces on the away team.

Trivia

In a stroke play competition, A, B and C were drawn by the Committee to play together starting at 9.00 am. A and B were present at the appointed time. C arrived at 9.02 am, after A and B had teed off, but just in time to play in the correct order. What is the ruling?

A There is no penalty.

B C is disqualified.

C C incurs a penalty of one stroke.


LAST WEEKS ANSWER
A player replaces his ball on the putting green, at the correct spot 30 centimetres from the hole, and the ball stays at rest. As he is about to address the ball, it rolls into the hole. What is the ruling?

A A is required to replace the ball.

B A is deemed to have holed out with his previous stroke.
C A is deemed to have holed out with his previous stroke but must add a penalty stroke to his score.
