WA News
Debra Majteles wins Mount Lawley Club ladies championship.

The 2019 final was one of the longest matches in many years with the Championship being fought to the
36th hole. It was very close for the entire 36 holes and the result could have gone either way. The weather
conditions weren’t ideal, with strong gusty winds and squally showers. Although the weather threw all its
might at the players they continued to battle on gallantly. Congratulations Debra, a worthy winner.

Championships which will be held at Monash Country Club on Thursday 28th November. The first round
of the A Grade stroke will be held on Sunday 24th November.

each of the represented clubs against each other will take place at Macquarie Links on the Public Holiday

the last event i.e. from April 24 2019 - August 21st 2019. Should someone who is selected be unavailable,
the captains will move down the points list.

                         Golf Rule of the Week

Putt strikes player’s foot
During a stroke play competition, a player made a stroke at his ball while on the green and missed the
hole, but then the ball rolled on and hit his foot, which was behind the hole. Does the golfer incur a penalty
or does he play ball from where it finishes?

Answer
Exception 2 to Rule 11.1b tells us that when a ball played from on the putting green accidentally hits any
person (including the player putting the ball), the player must replace a ball (the original or another ball) on
its original spot and replay the putt. If the original spot is not precisely known, the player must estimate it.
There is no penalty, and the stroke that hit the foot does not count.
If this were to occur anywhere except on the putting green, the ball would have to be played as it lies
[Rule 11.1b].

                                                                                                   Back to top ^
