When two or more rounds of a stroke-play competition are to be played over consecutive days, a competitor must not practice between those rounds on any competition course remaining to be played, or test the surface of any putting green on such course by rolling a ball or roughening or scraping the surface.

Bearing in mind the above we have a 36 hole stroke play over the weekend on the same day. I take it I am allowed to practice my putting on the hole I have completed as is normal in an 18 hole medal round

Unless the committee prohibit practice.33.1. 33.2c I think.:confused:

A reference to Note 2 of Rule 7-2 might have been more appropriate. ;)

Note 2: The Committee may, in the conditions of a competition (Rule 33-1), prohibit:
(a) practice on or near the Putting Green of the hole last played, and
(b) rolling a ball on the Putting Green of the hole last played.
