Matchplay this morning,
Asked my oppo to attend the flag as I had a very long putt, which he duly did.
With 10 feet to go i'd put money on the putt dropping, with 5 foot i'd have doubled it... I then notice oppo is day dreaming and hasnt pulled the pin. I shout flag, no response ball now a foot away, I shout flag, FLAG! with inches to go and he pulls it out.,
As it was the ball stopped on the edge of the hole.
I assume there is no penalty for my shouting at him to pull the pin out?
What if the ball had gone in and struck the pin, is it still loss of hole as I was expecting him to remove the flag.
