Until 1983, I was an avid, almost driven, player, often playing 27 holes per day for 5 or 6 days per week. So, of course, I’m still interested in the game.
It’s taken a long time, but the R&A and the USGA are finally changing the rules to make sense.
Here’s a brief explanation::
“Stroke-and Distance” changed
Two-stroke penalty for relieve from a bunker.
Players allowed to repair spike marks.
No penalty for accidentally moving a ball on the green.
May keep the flagstick in the hole when putting.
No more replacing a club during a round.
