25-2.
Embedded Ball
A ball embedded in its own pitch-mark in the ground in any closely-mown
area through the
green may be lifted, cleaned and dropped, without penalty,
as near as possible to the spot
where it lay but not nearer the hole. The ball when dropped must
first strike a part of the course
through the green. "Closely-mown area" means any area
of the course, including paths
through the rough, cut to fairway height or less.
Rule
25-3. Wrong Putting Green
a. Interference
Interference by a wrong putting green
occurs when a ball is on the wrong putting green.
Interference to a player's stance
or the area of his intended swing is not, of itself, interference
under this Rule.
b. Relief
If a player has interference by a wrong
putting green, the player must take relief, without
penalty. as follows:
The nearest point of relief shall
be determined which is not in a hazard
or on a putting
green. The player shall lift the ball and drop it within
one club-length of and not nearer the
hole than the nearest point of relief, on a part of the course which
avoids interference (as
defined) by the wrong putting green and is not in a hazard or on
a putting green. The ball may
be cleaned when so lifted.
PENALTY FOR BREACH OF RULE:
Match play - Loss of hole
Stroke play - Two stroke.
