Caddie's action breaches a Rule that if the player had taken would have been a breach, so Blakey loses the hole because the caddie gave incorrect information about the score that Blakey had had. GRQOTW116: Danny the D Grade Golfer is playing a stroke round at Wombat Hills. Danny makes her 6th stroke from the putting green on the 1st hole, and the ball comes to rest only 5cms (2in) from the hole.
Thinking she is playing stableford and frustrated that she is going to score 0 points on the 1st hole, she turns her putter upside down and knocks the ball into the hole using the grip end of the putter.
Andy the Average Golfer reminds Danny that she is playing stroke and not stableford. With Andy's excellent rules knowledge assisting her, and knowing she has not made a legal stroke, Danni replaces her ball back 5cms from the hole and putts the ball in the hole correctly. She asks Andy to put an 8 for her hole score (7 talent strokes and 1 penalty stroke for causing her ball to move).
Before submitting her scorecard, she asks you if 8 is correct, as she is not sure about the penalty stroke - what is her hole score for the 1st hole?
