    GUEST: Golf.Ai - Want to settle a rules debate? Ask Golf.ai! Choose a suggestion, or ask your own Rules question. This week we have Clive Mayhew from Golf.Ai on the podcast - THE GRQ PODCAST EP134


    The special guest on this week’s episode of the GolfRules Questions podcast is Clive Mayhew from Golf.Ai, who has set out on a journey to help raise the Golf Rules IQ of everyone on the planet through the use of AI. The powerful engines of the worlds best computer chips makes getting Rules access a lot quicker and easier, and the best way to prove your mates wrong. So whether you’re hacking into your friends computer, or slapping ham between two pieces of bread, here’s this week’s episode of the GolfRules Questions podcast.


    GRQOTW133: Late on a Friday afternoon at Wombat Hills GC, Blakey and Stuart are playing a match, and remarkably, Stuart is able to win the 18th hole to tie the match. Given the quickly fading daylight, both players agree to stop play and resume their match on Sunday morning at 8am. Two days later and just prior to starting their 19th hole of the match, Blakey tells Stuart that he had 39 points in the stableford competition played on the Wombat Hills course the day before. Knowing that an extended match is a continuation of the same round, not a new round, Stuart now knows that Blakey has practiced on the course during the match. He requests a ruling from the Committee before teeing off.


    Blakey is allowed to practice on the course before the match resumes on Sunday. Rule 5.5c specifically allows practice on the course when a match is stopped by agreement and will not resume on the same day, without restriction before the match is resumed. Therefore, there is no penalty.GRQOTW134: In stroke play, a marker enters the scores in the wrong boxes on the scorecard, can they correct it after they have returned the scorecard, or is it too late? If a marker signs in the player’s spot, and the player signs in the marker’s spot, and the scorecard is returned, is that also too late to correct it, or does it even need to be corrected?

    Adjusting clubs without making a stroke

    Intervening events - breaching a Rule during a stroke.

    Is there any free relief from the spray of a sprinkler?

    GRQOTW 132: Blakey and Stuart are all square in their match at Wombat Hills GC, after 12 holes. As the light is fading and as they walk off the 12th green, Blakey says to Stuart, "how about we agree to halve the 13th, 14th and 15th holes and we just walk over and play the final 3 holes starting on the 16th?” Stuart agrees and they walk to the 16th tee. Blakey tees off on 16 when a roving referee drives up and investigates further. What is the Referee's ruling, if anything?

    Referee shouldn’t get involved. But if one of the players says something to the Committee, then it will depend if the players knew what they were doing was a breach or not.
