Rois - look the other way please.

Guys, are women allowed to get the baps out at PGA tournaments? There's a video going round that suggests its okay, lol.

I was at a Stag weekend many years ago, the local bar in Edinburgh had a pool table that was being used by some scantily clad women. We just found it by chance, anyways, there was a young lady that was telling us to watch the final day of the Open as she had a surprise in store for Tiger! She did in fact get her baps (and much more) out on the fairway!

Lovely girl by all accounts

Rory's new longer putter was working well in the first three rounds. If he could hole his putts he would be joint leader, not three off the pace.

his putter can't handle the sunday pressure, again!!!!

Brutal putting today, should have been ahead on 18 by 4+ strokes.

Golfer A and Golfer B are playing in a stroke competition.

Both golfer are short of the green, and their golf balls are in line with the pin:

<Ball A>..................<Ball B>.............<Perimeter of Green>.........................<Pin>

Golfer A wants to putt his ball from the edge of the green onto the green. However, the ball belonging to Golfer B is directly in his line.

1) Can golfer A ask golfer B to mark his ball, when it is off the green?
2) Can golfer B refuse to mark his ball, meaning that golfer A has to either putt around it, or chip over it?

1. Yes - Rule 15.3b

2. Once asked, he has to mark - otherwise he can be disqualified

Yes but golfer B cannot clean the ball under normal rules of golf and only mark if requested by golfer A.
