Kinda like the other thread but didnt wana hijack it ..

We had a comp this weekend on Sat & Sun , it was only a 3 person , 2 scores counting comp so non qualifying so not really important !

Very wet here last night so they moved some of the pins over night moved them quiet a distance ,

Just Curious
Is there a rule or criteria distance wise for moving holes overnight in a 2 day comp ? or can the greenstaff do what they seem fit ?

Thanks

Rule 33-2b

New holes should be made on the day on which a stroke-play competition begins and at such other times as the Committee considers necessary, provided all competitors in a single round play with each hole cut in the same position.

Exception: When it is impossible for a damaged hole to be repaired so that it conforms with the Definition, the Committee may make a new hole in a nearby similar position.

Note: Where a single round is to be played on more than one day, the Committee may provide, in the conditions of a competition (Rule 33-1), that the holes and teeing grounds may be differently situated on each day of the competition, provided that, on any one day, all competitors play with each hole and each teeing ground in the same position.
