What is the one golf rule you would change if you had the opportunity?

mcbrim20259mo ago

I believe that if you hit a ball into the fairway you should be able to place it if sitting in a divot. You shouldn't be penalized for a good shot.

Slow play. Hand out 2 shot penalties there and then, would stamp it out. Monetary penalties mean nothing to most players.

antony.martin9mo ago

Stroke and distance penalty when you hit your ball out of bounds. It's a ridiculously harsh punishment. The penalty should be stroke OR distance, not both

peter.lynch9mo ago

Really clamp down on slow play... hand some suspensions out

walkercharlie8289mo ago

All you have to do is start taking strokes away. It would stop very quickly

jordan.harris9mo ago

Absolutely agree with this! Shot penalties for guilty players will sort this problem out in no time

no you just have to use more loft on your club. do this instead of rolling ball back.

john.verrall9mo ago

I see the logic. Bryson might not be happy with it though. He'd have a driver with higher loft than this four iron haha!

tee height! 1 inch tee max height. brings the golfers back to skill based and special tour issue clubs built for the players liking of tee height goes out the window.

john.verrall9mo ago

Would this not cause an issue with driver though, especially if you wanted to get a higher ball flight?

lsouthard249mo ago

relief, I don’t think you should be able to move your ball at all. if you get a bad break… you just have to play it.
