Rule 12 238 Definitions Wrong Place Any place on the course other than where the player is required or allowed to play their ball under the Rules. Examples of playing from a wrong place are: • Playing a ball after replacing it on the wrong spot or without replacing it when required by the Rules, • Playing a dropped ball from outside the required relief area, • Taking relief under a wrong Rule, so that the ball is dropped in and played from a place not allowed under the Rules, and • Playing a ball from a no play zone or when a no play zone interferes with the player’s area of intended stance or swing. A player has not played from a wrong place in the following situations: • When a ball has been played from outside the teeing area in starting play of a hole or in trying to correct that mistake (see Rule 6.1b), or • When a ball has been played from where it comes to rest after the player has failed to replay a stroke when required to do so.
