Southwyck Golf Trivia Winner
The first golf trivia contest in June ended yesterday. Here’s a quick recap.
The player incurs a one-stroke penalty when his ball is accidentally deflected by:
(A) his opponent’s golf bag in a single match.
(B) a rake.
(C) his golf cart
(D) a forecaddie employed by the Committee.
According to the USGA quiz I took this question from, the answer is (C) because of rule 19-2.
If a player’s ball is accidentally deflected or stopped by himself, his partner or either of their caddies or equipment, the player incurs a penalty of one stroke.
It can’t be (A) because the rule doesn’t apply to your opponent. (B) is the “rub of the green”. It’s not (D) because it’s not the player’s caddy. I wonder if anyone exists who actually knows all of these rules by heart. They should have masters degree programs to learn these.
The winner (selected at random among all of the correct entrants) of the free 4some at Southwyck Golf Club is:
Kevin Trinh of Pearland
Man, I guess he won’t have to drive far for that one.
Check back later to enter the June Guess That Hole contest. Good luck!
