I'm just having a dispute regarding what happens if someone plays their ball, on the fairway, and it lands and hits another ball, again on the fairway, moving it forwards or sideways.
Are both balls played as they lie, or does the one that was hit have to be put back? The incident could be 200yards away.
Googling the answer seems to give multiple answers saying play as they lie, but the R&A rules are a little unclear. If on the green it's clear, but on fairway...?
Was this rule changed recently?
Thanks for advice
