Regelförtydligande gällande mänskliga föremål i ruffen

En golfspelare ställde frågan om man har rätt till fri dropp från ett mänskligt föremål när bollen ligger i ruffen nära greenen.

Frågan rörde en utskuren granitplatta som störde en baksving från ruffen. Regelgurun förklarade att termen "through the green" från tiden före 2019 nu motsvarar det allmänna området enligt nuvarande regler. Fri dropp är fortfarande tillåten enligt regel 16.1, oavsett avstånd till greenen. En uppföljande fråga behandlade unga träd utan stöd och rollen för Model Local Rule E-10.
