Hi
Just learning my way round things. I think this is a fairly basic rule.
Hole played yesterday has a ditch across the fairway diagonally marked with red stakes. I played my tee shot, it landed on the ridge just on the far side of the ditch (so cleared the ditch), then bounced back into the water.
I think my options are:
i) replay tee shot
ii) back as far as I like on a line between the flag and where the ball crossed the imaginary line between the red posts, drop, must be within two club lengths of the line
iii) drop within two club lengths of where it crossed the imaginary line between the posts, no nearer the hole
All at penalty of one stroke.
Is that right?
If I did not know where the ball went into the hazard, I think my only option is i). Is that right?
