Denne gangen bringer jeg flere nøtter på en gang, og i engelsk språkdrakt.
Det er ikke sikkert at det er noen entydige svar her, men forhåpentlig vil debatten pågå lenge og intenst...
At the 2nd hole in a stroke play competition, a competitor’s ball comes to rest in a lateral water hazard.
The player knows where the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard, but is uncertain of the correct procedure.
He calls for a Rules official who advises that one of the options is to drop within three club-lengths of where the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard. The player drops at the extreme of the three club-lengths and completes the hole.

At the 15th hole, the competitor again hits his ball into a lateral water hazard. This time he does not call for an official and drops a ball at the extreme of three club-lengths from where the ball last crossed the margin of the hazard.

The competitor completes his round, but prior to returning his score card, the competitor’s procedure is questioned by a spectator and it comes to light that the ruling given by the Rules official on the 2nd hole was incorrect.

(a) Is the competitor penalised for adopting an incorrect dropping procedure at the 2nd hole?
(b) Should the competitor be penalised for adopting an incorrect dropping procedure at the 15th hole?
(c) If a fellow-competitor had observed the ruling given to the competitor on the 2nd hole and then adopted exactly the same procedure on the 3rd hole without an official in attendance, should the fellow-competitor be penalised for adopting an incorrect dropping procedure?
Jeg gleder meg!
