Today I was asked by a fellow competitor to remove my ball from the hole before he took his putt as he had been told that if his ball hit mine in the bottom of the hole it would be a penalty.
My initial instinct was that my ball at rest at the bottom of the hole was not in play so hitting it wouldn't be a penalty - however I couldn't think where I could find the rule or what the status of my ball was. Please advise.
