Blogan99 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Match play event, Member Guest, handicaps in effect. Team 1, player A and B. Team 2, player A and B. Player 1B is putting for bogey, 4 feet from the hole. Player 2A asks Player 1A: "Are there any strokes on this hole?" Player 1A responds: "I don't think so, BUT I don't know for sure." Player 2B concedes Player 1B's putt. Team 2 makes a par, Team 1 believes they have made a bogey walking off the green. When teams reach their carts, they realize that Player 1B did in fact have a stroke on the hole, and made a net par with the conceded putt, tying the hole. Player 2A sternly protests that they would not have conceded the putt had they known Player 1B was receiving a stroke and contends they still win the hole. What is the ruling in this situation? Player 1A did state that he was not sure if there were any strokes on the hole, when he was asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
perseveringgolfer Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 its up to the players to know where strokes are given/received. As far as I'm aware once a hole is conceded thats the hole over.

GolfJunkie302 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 Team B is down the drain on this one. Pro tip: If you want a solid answer, check the scorecard for yourself.

gaussman1 Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 The stroke was conceded therefore the result stands. As player 1A stated that he did not know the handicap status for sure then he is not deemed to have violated Rule 9-2b which pertains to giving wrong information. Had he knowingly provided wrong information he would have received a loss of hole penalty Rogue SZ 10.5 *NEW* Fujikura Pro Green 65 X Rogue 15 degree Evnflow Blue 6.5 Back in the Bag Z765 4-G Nippon Modus 120 Stiff 54 and 60 Amazing Grace Ass Kicker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Undershooter Posted April 22, 2018 Share Posted April 22, 2018 In this case team B is sol. When in doubt, you make them putt it out. HOWEVER if a player thinks a putt is conceded and it's not, or if there is a misunderstanding on a putt being conceded or not then the ball may be replaced to the spot and played out accordingly. That is not the case here though. And as Gaussman mentioned, if incorrect info had been given and the putt was conceded then the team in error would have forfeited the hole.

Bmasterson78 Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I've won a lot of holes in match play over the years by simply paying attention to what is going on with the scorecard.

HardcoreLooper Posted April 23, 2018 Share Posted April 23, 2018 I play in my dad's member-guest just about every year. If we don't have the official card, he always grabs another one for us and marks it up. There's no excuse for not knowing who strokes where. Insisting you would not have conceded the putt had you known the situation is just poor form. That's one you keep to yourself. Don't be that guy.

DaveP043 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Its important to remember that Rule 9 relates to information about Strokes Taken, not to where the handicap strokes fall. As long as Player 1a did not knowingly mislead team 2, there's no penalty.

Albatrossx3 Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 Team A loses the hole, Match play rules state that the player must accurately tell their opponent strokes taken and handicap strokes effect that, The rules also state it is the players responsibility to know their correct handicaps and what holes strokes are applied. Just because A partner says he did not know for sure does not absolve them of knowing what is correct. rule 6.2 and rule 30 and Rule 2 Three, Albatross' Three Holes in One Plus, when I was 5 the first ball I ever hit on a golf course went in the hole, so I have that going for me. My bag is a mish mash of Srixon drivers, cobra and adams fairways, TA1 irons and Hopkins wedges, plus a Cure putter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither Rule 30 nor Rule 2 mentions handicap strokes. Rule 9-1 indicates that the required information specifically includes penalty strokes, but does not mention handicap strokes. Can you provide a specific decision that says that the required information DOES include where the handicap strokes fall? Seperately, the player on Team 1 says he's not sure where strokes fall, he didn't provide any specific information. If the guys from team 2 are too lazy to check for themselves, they deserve what they got.
