Tour Winner
Don't know if this has been done, but I thought (while already procrastinating from studies) that it would be worthwhile, fun even, to compile a comprehensive list of rules myths.
We'll see how the thread pans out, but if we get a wide contribution from forumites, I will compile them into a document and upload somewhere with no download restrictions. We can then refer to this in future when a myth pops up on the rules forum, or you can print off and pin to your club's noticeboard
Ideally, this will be a thread to 'get things off your chest', particularly when you've been misled by others in the past.
No need to quote other replies, I can compile once this thread runs its course.
Let's make a start.
1. In medal play, the player with the highest/lowest handicap must tee off first
2. Any time a ball is found to be plugged in the rough, players may lift, clean and drop no closer to the hole with no penalty
