Aclaración sobre las reglas respecto a objetos artificiales en el rough

Un golfista cuestionó si se aplica el alivio sin penalización por un objeto artificial cuando la bola se encuentra en el rough cerca del green.

La consulta trataba sobre una losa de granito tallada que interfería con el swing de retroceso desde el rough. El experto en reglas explicó que el término anterior a 2019 "a través del campo" (through the green) corresponde ahora al área general bajo las reglas actuales. El alivio sin penalización sigue estando disponible bajo la Regla 16.1, independientemente de la proximidad al green. Una consulta adicional abordó el tema de los árboles jóvenes sin tutores y el papel de la Regla Local Modelo E-10.
