A ball may not be moved from a spot in the general area (fringe/rough) onto a green.
  • Putting Green: When a ball is on a putting green, all players must putt from that spot.
  • Penalty Areas and Bunkers: If a ball is in a bunker or penalty area, the ball must be played as it lies. The second ball must be dropped from knee height as near as possible to the spot of the first ball. The ball cannot be placed in a hazard.  
  • Unmarked Areas: Any unmarked areas are considered in the general area.
