Regarding the rules of playing golf, golf is an upper-class sport that many people like, and golf in our life, commonly known as small white ball, is an outdoor sport. Golf has many rules. Here are some rules about playing golf.

Rules of golf 1 rules of golf

1, the ball was blown into the hole by the wind.

You hit the green beautifully and put the ball less than 2 yards from the flagpole. Pick up the ball and wipe it, then you put it back.

When you observe the putter route from behind the ball, a gust of wind blows the ball into the hole. Many golfers think that you should get the ball back without punishment. The correct answer is: Congratulations, hitting the ball into the hole is your last shot.

Because by definition, wind and water are not outsiders, but part of the game. If the wind or water brings the ball to a new position after the ball is stationary, the player will play a stroke in the new position. And if the ball is brought into the hole, it counts as the player's last hole.

2. Hit the ball out of the bunker.

When you hit the ball out of bounds or throw it from the bunker, according to the rules, you have to accept a penalty and hit the ball again from the place where you hit the last shot (that is, the bunker). Golfers are experienced. If the sand in the bunker is soft, throwing the ball in the bunker is easy to form poached eggs, which is very difficult to handle. Therefore, many people will choose to put the ball in the bunker when playing a test ball or simply playing a new ball.

In fact, this treatment is not correct. If you don't correct it in time before hitting the ball, you will be fined 2 strokes (stroke play). According to Rule 20-5, when a player chooses or the rule requires him to return to the place where he played the last shot to play a new ball, he should throw the ball as close as possible to the place where he just played in the obstacle course.

3. Fill the turf before playing the provisional ball

After you hit the ball on the fairway, you cut up a large piece of turf. At this time, your caddy reminded you that the shot just now was too wide and might be out of bounds. You'd better play a tentative ball first.

If you pick up the cut turf and fill it up before playing the temporary ball, you will be fined 2 strokes (stroke play) for violating the rule 13-2 (improving the throwing area by improving the uneven surface).

But if the player doesn't feel that he will go out of bounds or lose after hitting the ball, he just puts the turf back out of courtesy and protection of the stadium. However, when it is later found that the ball is out of bounds or lost and needs to go back to the original place to play a new ball, the player will not be punished for filling the turf just now.

4. When another ball moves, calibrate and pick up the ball on the green.

After hitting the ball from the fairway to the green, you didn't mark it immediately. Pick it up. At this point, a player in the same group cut the pole 5 yards outside the green, fearing that his ball would be knocked down by the cut ball. You stride forward, quickly mark the green and pick up your ball.

At this time, violation of 16- 1b will result in two penalties. In the new version of rules of golf, the rule 16- 1b has been modified, which clearly stipulates that when the ball moves on the green, if the player's behavior of picking up the ball will affect the ball's movement, then the ball cannot be picked up at this time. This modification also echoes the rule 1-2, making the rule more rigorous.

5. Mark and remove the temporary water on the green.

Many golfers have experienced rain while playing. When the rain is dense and the drainage system of the golf course is not smooth, there will be different sizes of water in the low-lying areas on the green.

Many amateur players will choose to use clubs or towels to clean up the water on their putter line. This behavior has actually violated the rule 13-2, and the player has improved the push line by clearing the stagnant water, so he will be fined two strokes. At this point, the correct choice for the player is either to play in the existing state (push the ball off the water), or to pick up the ball and accept the penalty-free remedy, and put the ball away from the hole, avoid temporary water (the ball position, playing line and standing position should be avoided), and not in the obstacle area.

Competition type

There are two forms of golf competition: stroke play and competition. Stroke play is very common in both professional and amateur competitions. The so-called stroke play is to add up the batting number of each hole, and after playing a game (18 hole), add up all the batting numbers, and judge the outcome by the total batting number. The match is also based on the number of strokes, but the difference is that the number of strokes per hole determines the outcome of the hole, and then the cumulative number of winning and losing holes determines the score of each game.

Stroke play stipulates that the ball must be hit into the hole before it can move to the tee of the next hole. The game is decided on every hole. As long as the opponent agrees, there is no need to adhere to the principle that all balls need to go into the hole.

The penalty of stroke play and Bitong match is different, and the penalty of foul is also different. Generally speaking, stroke play's penalty is two strokes, and stroke play's penalty is to punish him for losing the hole.

Judgment processing

Out-of-bounds (OB) "Out-of-bounds" is an area where competitions are prohibited, usually marked with boundary posts or fences. The boundary outside the boundary shall be determined by boundary markers (excluding supports) or the point closest to the ground in the fence. For example, when marking out of bounds on the ground, the boundary line extends vertically up and down, and the line itself is regarded as out of bounds.

Losing the ball can be regarded as "losing the ball" under the following circumstances:

1, the player or his team, or their younger brother still can't find the ball three minutes after starting to look for it; Or although it is found, the player can't identify whether it is his own ball;

2. According to the rules, the player used another ball as the match ball, but did not look for its original ball;

3. The player clicks the replacement ball from the original position or the hole closer to the original position, so the replacement ball becomes the game ball.

The original ball may be lost, out of bounds and replaced by a ball outside the water obstacle, which is called a "replacement ball"

Water obstacle (including lateral water obstacle) "Water obstacle" refers to any sea, lake, pond, river, ditch, surface drainage ditch or other open-air channel (whether there is water or not) and other similar ones.

If land or water is within the boundary of the water barrier, the land belongs to a part of the water barrier. The boundary of the water barrier extends vertically upward, and the boundary markers and landmarks used to mark the boundary are counted as obstacles.

It is a matter of fact whether the ball hitting the water obstacle is lost inside or outside the obstacle. If it is considered to be lost in an obstacle, there must be evidence that the ball did fall into the obstacle; If there is no definite evidence, it should be regarded as losing the ball and handled according to the rules.

If the ball falls, touches or is lost in a water hazard (whether the ball is in the water or not), the player will be fined one stroke and will be dealt with as follows:

1, try to hit the next shot as close as possible to the original position of the last shot.

2. When the original ball finally passes through a point on the edge of the water obstacle and the straight line between the balls, throw the ball behind the water obstacle. There is no limit to the distance of the ball from the water obstacle.

3. When the ball falls, touches or gets lost in the side water obstacle, you can choose the following special measures:

(1) obstacle, away from the edge of the water obstacle through which the original ball finally passes;

(2) or the edge of the water barrier on the other side at the same distance from the hole;

Throw the ball within the length of two bats. The ball will fall and stop at a place no closer to the hole than the edge where the original ball finally passes through the water obstacle. According to the rules, the ball should not be wiped.

Achievement calculation

Golf is called a gentleman's sport. When golfers with different technical levels get together to play, in order to make the game fairer and more competitive, high-level golfers have to give way to poor golfers. How to calculate the number of points allowed by each player is a handicap. The following are the most commonly used methods to calculate the handicap:

1, average method:

Almost = average score of five games-par

2, the new beria new calculation method.

A. The sum of the rods of 12 holes selected from 18 holes × 1.5= the total number.

B, after subtracting the standard from the total number, x 0.8 = almost.

That is, the sum of (12 holes ×1.5-par )× 0.8 = almost the same.

C, Internet cafes = always-almost.

Matters needing attention

No lateness

The biggest taboo of golf is being late. If you are late for a game with your friends, you will be listed as the least popular golfer; If you are late for the official competition, you will be punished or disqualified.

Penalties for being late can be divided into two types according to the competition form; Stroke play, the latecomers will be fined two shots; In the competition, the first hole was lost. It can be seen that being late for the game is a great shame for the contestants and should be avoided as much as possible.

Know the game in advance. Each contestant must know the competition conditions set by the stadium before the competition:

1, the correct time for the game;

2. Arrangement of members of each group;

3. I was almost recognized;

4. The first hole is 1 or 10;

5. Local rules on the day of the competition;

The number of clubs is limited to fourteen. In a regular game, each player can only bring fourteen clubs, and if there are less than fourteen clubs, fourteen clubs can be added. Damaged or unusable clubs can be replaced during the game, but the principle is not to delay the game; And no matter how to make up or change clubs, you are not allowed to borrow them from any player on the court. Once the club is lent until the game is terminated, the lent club shall be used by the lender, and the lender shall not use it.

Rules of golf 2 1. The current rules of golf is made up of the Royal Old Golf Club of St Andrews (R&; A) The most authoritative code of conduct for professional and amateur players approved by the United States Golf Association (USGA) is revised and printed every four years.

2. Basic rules Although there are many rules in golf, the most basic ones are the following two points:

1. Participants must play on fair terms.

2. You must be able to handle situations that are objectively beneficial to you during the competition.

As for other rules, they are based on the above two basic principles. Obey the rules and start from yourself. Although rules of golf is formulated by the Golf Association, most of the rules are still managed by the players themselves. When the game is in progress, every player has the responsibility to make the game fair and just; And based on the spirit of fair competition, every player should demand that he is a referee who abides by the rules.

Hit the ball into the hole by hitting the ball. The most basic principle of golf is to hit the ball continuously from the table until the ball enters the hole. In short, there is no other way to start with the first shot, then hit the ball repeatedly and hit the ball into the hole. It is against the rules to move with the ball, or to throw and roll the ground.

Don't continue the game until the ball is at rest. When the ball is hit, no matter what state it is in, you should wait until the ball is at rest before continuing the game. This is the unchangeable law of golf. Never touch or move the position of the ball, nor change the surrounding environment for the convenience of swinging.

3. There are two forms of golf competition: stroke play and match. Stroke play is the most common type in both professional and amateur competitions. The so-called stroke play is to add up the batting number of each hole, and after playing a game (18 hole), add up all the batting numbers, and judge the outcome by the total batting number. The match is also based on the number of strokes, but the difference is that the number of strokes per hole determines the outcome of the hole, and then the cumulative number of winning and losing holes determines the score of each game.

Stroke play stipulates that the ball must be hit into the hole before it can move to the tee of the next hole. The game is decided on every hole. As long as the opponent agrees, there is no need to adhere to the principle that all balls need to go into the hole.

The penalty of stroke play and Bitong match is different, and the penalty of foul is also different. Generally speaking, stroke play's penalty is two strokes, and stroke play's penalty is to punish him for losing the hole.

4. The golf course consists of eighteen holes, which are divided into three types according to the length of the holes: all three types are set according to the standard number of strokes. The so-called standard number of strokes is the number of strokes that the player should complete according to the design.

Then there are short holes, middle holes and long holes in the middle. A short hole is a hole with a standard number of three strokes; In other words, if you play par three, you should hit the hole through par three from the tee. And so on, four strokes and five strokes. This is par. That is to say: the standard number of short holes is three; The standard number of the middle hole is four; The standard number of long holes is five.
