Hi,
Two weeks ago, while playing our weekly round of golf, we had to take cover for the usual drop of rain during the summer.
After it stoped raining we tied up and fired our balls onto the fairway. One of my friend's ball had landed in a stream of casual water running through the fairway. This stream of course was a result of the rainshower just moments before.
The stream was so strong it took the ball with it. This stream ended up into a water hazar about 30yds back down the fairway.
Now the question of course is, what is the ruling here?
Can you just pick up the ball and drop it outside the casual water, closest to where it probably would have landed? Do you have to wait untill it stops and then take a drop?
Thanks,
Pim
