The Rules of Golf are an integral part of the Game. Many of us think that the rules are implemented to penalize us, however it is just the opposite! The Rules of Golf are our friends and can help us in many sticky situations! Some of the new rules changes include removing stones from bunkers, free relief from an embedded ball in the rough, repair any damage on the green, and many more!
It is important to study the rules as you may find yourself needing a little help during your round!

During the 2020 Master's Tournament, Jason Kokrak hit his approach on the par 5, 15th hole and nearly hit Lee Westwood as the ball ended up in the Penalty Area behind the green. What would be the ruling had Kokrak's ball hit Lee Westwood?
.
.
A: If the ball hit Westwood, there would be no penalty and Kokrak would play it as it lies. If the other player had deliberately stopped the ball in motion, that person would receive the general penalty. Lee Westwood demonstrated a class act as he marked the spot where Jason Kokrak's ball entered the Penalty Area to help with upcoming ruling.
