We recently hosted a Clutch Golf: Pro Tour event. Close behind our 2nd green is a course boundary hedge. Immediately by and to the left of the hedge is an out of bounds post defining OOB down the left side of the hole and close by LHS of green.
The event organisers decided to be more explicit about the status of the hedge and had us paint a white line on the ground from the OOB marker along the course side of the hedge…explicitly placing all of the hedge out of bounds. As this was a few weeks ago much of the white line has gone…but it is still there in parts. Does this mean the hedge remains out of bounds or does it revert to a boundary hedge…from which play is allowed if it is possible and consistent with rules of boundary hedges.
