I had a friend e-mail this to me. I can't tell if it's real or if he's forwarding some rules craziness that didn't happen, but I figured TexAgs would know for sure:
"Playing in a match in a foursome (2 separate matches). On the green, a player in the other match asked the player I was playing to move and mark his ball, and he did.
After he putted the player I was playing stepped up to putt his own ball. I stood there and thought for a minute, should I tell him to move his ball back to its original position….a dilemma
Anyway, I thought to myself, this was not a way to win a match. I stopped him as he was about to putt and told him to move his ball back. He did and sunk his putt and eventually beat me.
This was not a money match. Would you have done the same?
Anyway, I told the pro in the shop what happened, and he Saadi I did the right thing, and then he disqualified the guy I was playing for taking advice in a match regardless of who it came from.
Crazy or what?"
