CWDGA Rule of the Month
True or False?
A player concedes a hole because the opponent gave wrong information on the Rules. When it is discovered that the opponent was wrong, the concession may be withdrawn.
The statement is false. Wrong information only includes information regarding strokes taken (including penalty strokes); it does not include information on the Rules. There is no penalty for accidentally giving incorrect information on the Rules of Golf. A concession is final and cannot be declined or withdrawn. |
