Example

Explaining what actions constitute a penalty when a ball is played from outside the tee box.

Scenario

A user questions whether hitting a ball that was teed up behind the designated tee markers incurs a penalty. FAiRWAY explains that playing from outside the teeing area in match play automatically loses the hole, while in stroke play it incurs a two-stroke penalty and the stroke must be replayed from within the teeing area.

Example

Detailing the rules regarding the permissible number of clubs in a bag during official play.

Scenario

A user is preparing for a tournament and inquires about the maximum number of clubs allowed during play. FAiRWAY informs the user that the limit is 14 clubs and explains the potential penalties for breaching this rule, such as a two-stroke penalty for each hole where an excess club was used, with a maximum of four penalty strokes per round.

Scenario

During a round, a player's ball lands near a yardage marker. Unsure if the marker can be moved or if relief is allowed without penalty, the player consults FAiRWAY. The tool explains that obstructions like yardage markers are movable if possible, and if not, the player is entitled to free relief under the Rules of Golf.
