806.03 Casual Area

Last updated: Tuesday, February 11, 2025 - 13:39
  1. A casual area is an area designated by the director which allows for optional relocation without penalty. A player may choose to take relief if their lie is in that area.
  2. By default, any body of water that is in-bounds and has not been explicitly declared by the Director to be in play is a casual area.
  3. A player may obtain relief from a casual area without penalty by marking along the line of play a new lie which is farther from the target and no farther than the nearest lie where the marker disc and lie are outside the casual area.
  4. Additional or alternate relief may be declared by the director for a casual area.
  5. A player who takes relief other than as allowed by rule has committed a misplay for playing from an Incorrect Lie under 811.F.1.
