  • WGAWP: 2021 Singles Match Play Reminders
    WGAWP: 2021 Singles Match Play Reminders The rules of golf differ for match play and stroke play. The following summarizes the differences for “singles” match play which is relevant for the WGAWP Team Matches. LATE TO TEE IN THE EVENT A PLAYER IS LATE, MATCHES MAY NOT BE RE-ORDERED. Any player arriving at her starQng point, ready to play, within five minutes aSer her starQng Qme, is penalized the loss of the first hole (USGA note to Rule 5-3). If a player is more than 5 minutes late for a match, their opponent should begin play alone. The late player will be allowed to join their opponent on the next tee of the hole that is being played when the late player arrives and meets her opponent on the course. (Therefore, in being late a player no longer loses 18 points but instead loses points for any holes they missed and then the match conQnues) However, if the late player does not arrive, ready to play, by the Qme her opponent finishes the 9th hole -- all 18 points will go to the player that arrived on Qme and has played 9 holes. An unopposed player is permi_ed to play the course as a pracQce round, if she chooses. TOO MANY CLUBS If during the match it is discovered that a player is carrying more than 14 clubs, at the conclusion of the hole at which the breach is discovered, the state of the match is adjusted by deducQng one hole for each hole at which the breach occurred with a maximum of two per round.

  • 2019 Rules Fact Sheet. Alignment (Rule 10.2B). What Is New
    2019 Rules Fact Sheet. Alignment (Rule 10.2b). What is new? • Nobody can help you with your alignment for the stroke. This is an essential skill which you must do for yourself. • This is a new rule and the key is that it affects you once you BEGIN to take your stance. At this moment, you must make sure that your caddie is not deliberately standing directly behind you. If he or she is there deliberately – for any reason – you will be in breach of the rule. There is no way out of this breach, which means you cannot avoid the penalty by backing away and starting again. The penalty is two strokes. • But, there is one limited exception which only applies when your ball is on the putting green. The penalty can be avoided when your ball is on the putting green if you back away and start again without your caddie directly behind you. This is designed to recognise that on a putting green, help in reading the putt - which is allowed - is often done from behind the ball or player and this may take place when the player is simulating the stroke in the address position. Provided you back away and start again without your caddie positioned behind you, you are not in breach. • There is also a new rule – No Setting Down Object to Help in Taking Stance (10.2b.3) - which prevents you from setting something down (such as a club) to help you with lining up your feet or body. Once this is done, again there is no way out of the penalty (two strokes or loss of hole).
