Ooops, Wrong hole

[Gmelrose]

Hi everyone.

My golf buddies and i have been wondering what the ruleing is if a wayward shot ends up in the wrong hole on a double green?

I presume that it's just a drop away from the correct hole but wondered if anyone knew for sure?

Regards, Gmelrose

Not sure of the rule, but top marks for the thread title.

...especially when coupled with your username SB!

I presume its just an unplayable lie and a penalty drop.

could this be a first? there's nothing in the decisions

It's a hole made by a greenkeeper, so it's GUR - place at nearest point on the green, no penalty.....

Thats what I would have said , free placement on the green next to the hole

err... have a look at decision 16/7

Sammmebee & Jammydodger are right - it's a hole made by a green keeper and therefore GUR
