PARAMUS, N.J. -- Seung-Yul Noh was assessed one of the more rare two-stroke penalties during Friday's second round of The Barclays after playing his second shot on the 11th hole from the third green.

Noh hit his tee shot so far right on the par 4 that it landed on the putting surface of the adjacent hole.

After waiting for the group on No. 3 to putt out, Noh hit his next shot from the green.

Under USGA Rule 25-3, if a player's ball is on a wrong putting green, he must take relief and drop within one club length not nearer the hole than the nearest point of relief. The nearest point of relief must also not be in a hazard or on a putting green.

Wow!  That is an easy one to remember.  Shame on him.

Interestingly enough, neither his caddy nor the announcers seemed to be aware of this rule either. At least, I didn't hear the announcers say anything about a possible infraction. Also the guy speaking with the official afterwards asked if it was a LR or ROG. Seems like it's not that well known at all!

Yours in earnest, Jason.

I at least cringed when he took a divot!

Also the grounds crew got out the fancy equipment and mini green roller to help fix that. :-D

I would have been so freaked out at taking a swing on a green that I'd probably totally choke and take 13 inch divot that starts 7 inches behind the ball, or maybe even one of these classics:

Agreed the lack of knowledge of the caddy was surprising, but I'm not surprised about the announcers at all.  In general, there's a relationship:  the more vehemently an announcer argues about a rules issue, the more wrong he is about the actual rule.

Too bad there's no little booklet, or maybe even a website or smartphone app, that could make this information available to those broadcasting. :-X

As seldom as this happens, especially on the tour level,  I'm not surprised the golfers, caddies, or announcers did not know the rule.

I'm not surprised. the other day I heard a commentator (and ex PGA Tour winner and British Open playoff loser, Jack Newton) insisting that you get three drops before placing your ball if it rolls out of the legal range. He was very surprised when the player placed it after two drops, thinking there must have been a rule change. Amazing.

In the race of life, always back self-interest. At least you know it's trying.

I am surprised that they didn't inform him before hitting the shot in some way.

I don't know how obscure it is, but virtually every golfer I ever played with was probably aware of it. Juniors tend to just try to hit the ball hard - so it often winds up on other greens. :)

Obscure?

One need look no further than the Table of Contents.

Blimey, there it is in black and white ... Rule 25, Abnormal Ground Conditions, Embedded Ball and Wrong Putting Green.

Are you kidding?

Every player I've ever seen hit onto the wrong green knows not to hit from it.

Well he obviously didn't Noh. Seung Yul just didn't Noh....I'm sorry, I really need to stop.

Not sure if obscure was the right choice of word. I meant more common knowledge than anything.

Thank you for telling me nicely.

No, I wasn't kidding. I didn't know. How many players have you seen hit from the wrong green? I haven't ever experienced something like that happening, so I just assumed it was along the same lines of hitting onto a different holes fairway and the like.

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      Is This Club Blatantly Sandbagging?

      By Big C ·

      A bit of background. The Southern California Golf Association (SCGA) runs an annual event known as "Team Play." It is a wildly popular match play competition where Men's Clubs across the region put together teams of 20+ golfers together to compete against other clubs in a 16 vs. 16 match. In any given year, approximately 80-100 clubs will participate. Each club is grouped into "pods" of 4, and will play 6 total matches - one home and one away match against the other 3 clubs. The winning club from each pod advances to the Team Play Playoffs - a single elimination format - until a winner is crowned.  Antelope Valley Country Club just advanced to the championship match for the 3rd consecutive year. They won the championship in both 2022 and 2023.  Based on my review of the match history from the past 3 years (linked below), they have won 21 consecutive team matches. Keep in mind, these are handicapped matches, so this is not just a case where a group of sticks bands together to dominate the poor amateurs other SoCal clubs. Even if these guys are grinders who never quit, play their best under pressure and routinely putt the lights out, the law of averages still say that a streak of that nature is mathematically impossible.  Is there any plausible explanation beyond institutionalized sandbagging throughout the club?

      Interesting that Scottie is #10 on the all time money list and he's been on the PGAT for 4 years. Of course, purses are bigger now, but  neat to look at non-the-less.  The list of top 18 money winners in PGA Tour history has plenty of surprises This list is updated through the 2024 RBC Heritage. To add, Scottie won 4.5 million at the Players, Jack played 44 seasons and won a little of 5 million on course.
