Show Little Toad Raises New Problem for Golf World A toad brought a new problem to the golfing world the ' other day at Redcar, Y'orksbire. In a match W. Loveridge landed his ball in the rough. As the piayer approached ap-proached a large toad jumped up, and the ball, which had apparently rested on the toad's back disappeared into a hole. To play the ball Loveridge imshed the toad away, but it jumped into the hole where the ball had lodged, rendering it unplayable. The point at issue was whether, in lifting out the ball and dropping it to play the second shot, Loveridge should be penalized. It was ruled that since the ball had been moved by an agency outside the game, no penalty should be incurred. |
