I’ve had two instances of a ball at rest moving in the last week, are they both the same result re penalty/replacing etc?
First is easy (I think) ball at rest just off fairway, ground condition is packed sand (not a hazard) my stance is on the fairway grass but I’ve addressed the ball (did not ground club & had not started back-swing) ball moved about an inch
Second is my ball on raised green (no players on green) my ball is roughly 6ft on and 6ft from pin and as I walk along the the side of the sloped bank of the green so roughly 12 ft away from my ball, I take a wide step to clear my FC’s line of his chip (so a heavier footfall than normal walking pace) at that time my ball moves about an inch
No wind on either day
Thanks
