  1. The ball who hit your ball gets a penalty if that ball was on the green and yes your partner should have got your ball marked.

    Have a good one...


  2. whether to mark is your choice. Its your responsibility to mark or not.....Not your partners.   If you choose not to mark.. your ball gets returned to its original position or as near as you can approximate.  The second ball plays from where it lays......there is no penalty

  3. The decision depends on whether the opponent's ball was on the green or off the green when the shot hit your ball. If it were off the green when the player hit his shot which hit your ball, there is no penalty. Your ball will be replaced to its position prior to the hit and the opponents ball is played from the position where it rests. If both balls were on the green then the player who hit the shot which hit your ball will incur a 1 shot penalty. Your ball will be returned to its position before it was struck  and his will be played from the spot where it came to rest

  4. Its the ball that gets hit on the green unless you ask if he wants it marked and he says no and then he hits it then its his penalty.

  5. Nobody gets any penalty.  You have to replace your ball to its original position (as close as possible) before it got hit, and your friend will play his ball where it landed after hitting your ball.

  6. Rule 19-5: When both balls are on the green before the shot, the player who hit the shot would receive a two-stroke penalty in stroke play.

    In match play, there would be no penalty.

    If either ball was off the green, there is no penalty in any circumstance.

    In all cases, you replace the ball, and the person who made the stroke would play his ball wherever it came to rest. If it went in the hole, it counts! (But don't forget the two-stroke penalty!)

    I'm not sure you really mean "partner" in this question. Your 'partner' is someone who plays on the same side as you. He would have no role in this situation.

    Your 'opponent' (in match play) or 'fellow competitor' (in stroke play) should have asked you to mark the ball. If you hadn't reached the green yet, he should wait until you get to the green so you can mark it.

    If you had reached the green, then you shold have marked the ball without being asked.
