Q.
The player’s ball has come to rest inside a rubbish bag. How would they proceed?
.
A.
As it was known that the player’s ball was inside the rubbish bag, the player did a quick search and found their ball. Now, they place a mark directly below where the ball was at rest (this is the reference point), and then determine their relief area in which to drop, by using a club-length from this reference point. They move the rubbish bag out of the way, drop their a ball, and play on. No penalty.
Rule 15.2.
