Q.
If a ball lands in a shoe and the shoe is inside the penalty area, does the player get to drop in the general area?
.
A.
No, if the reference point (the spot on the ground directly below where the ball came to rest in the shoe) is in a penalty area, then the player is permitted to take a free drop, but this must be within one club-length, no nearer the hole, inside the penalty area.
