Round 16: Dave Dominates
15th August:
![[Trophy Presentation]](photos/2026/presentation_26aug15a.jpg "Trophy Presentation")
With seven hole wins and eleven skins in total, DaveM was in charge all round. His new pre shot routine, staying still over the ball until almost asphyxiated, leading to a strong tee to green game.
The other three players all had their moments but couldn't match Dave's consistency.

After many withdrawals, only the brave DavidM was available to play today.
Despite the offer to take a selfie with the trophy and claim 18 skins, it was sad news for Dave.

The New Rules of Golf - Effective 1st January 2023
You can find a new rules "infographic" from the R&A and USGA in this PDF file.
The main changes are:
Simplified Back-on-the-Line Relief.
This relief procedure, often used for penalty area and unplayable ball relief, has been simplified so the ball is now dropped on the line, and may roll up to one club-length in any direction without a re-drop being required. This change simplifies what had become a complex procedure that was regularly breached by golfers without them realising they had done so. It represents a return to the essence of the easy-to-apply, pre-2019 process, which was almost entirely free of inaccurate application by golfers at any level of the game.
Handicap on Scorecard.
Golfers will no longer incur a penalty under the Rules of Golf for accidentally recording an incorrect Daily Handicap on their scorecard. This is because the inclusion of the handicap in the official submission of a player’s score will become a responsibility of the Committee. This change is consistent with other penalty reductions, such as reducing the penalty down to only one stroke for playing an incorrectly substituted ball. (Note: In the same way that players are obliged to calculate Stableford points and to include score totals on their scorecard despite the Rules not requiring it, they will also be obliged to record their Daily Handicap when doing so will be helpful to administrators. GA will support any committee that encounters a problem in achieving assistance from golfers with this fundamental obligation.)
Replacing Damaged Clubs.
If your club is damaged during a round (except in cases of abuse) you may replace it, repair it, or continue to use it.
