Q.
The player’s ball is in the bunker and half-buried in the sand. Does this entitle the player to free relief for an embedded ball?
.
A.
The embedded ball Rule only applies to balls that are plugged in the general area. That is the fairway and the rough, it does not apply to balls that are embedded in a bunker.
Rule 16.3.
