I know the rule here: no penalty on the green, one shot penalty otherwise (assuming the ball is replaced before the next stroke). But why is there a difference between on the green and off it?
Spot on(maybe its to do with the fact that you can/will usually touch and move a ball on a green and don't usually touch a ball anywhere else, so a player much more likely to have an 'ball moved by accident' on a green)
