| Out of Position | Penalties During Round | ||||||||||||||||||||
| First Group: | At any time during the round they: (a) exceed the allotted time to play | First Offence: No penalty | |||||||||||||||||||
| Second Offence: One stroke penalty | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Subsequent Groups: | At any time during the round they: (a) exceed the allotted time to play and | Third Offence: Two stroke penalty | |||||||||||||||||||

| the hole is open and free of play. | Note: Any timings exceeding the applicable time to play a | ||||||||||||||||||||
| stroke (bad time) will be carried over throughout the round. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Note: | The committee reserves the right to time a group when the Committee | ||||||||||||||||||||
| deems it necessary. Further, if a player is determined by the Committee | |||||||||||||||||||||
| to be unreasonably slow, he may be timed individually at the Committee's | |||||||||||||||||||||
| discretion regardless of whether his group if out of position. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Timing | |||||||||||||||||||||
| When a group or individual will be timed, all players in the group or the specific individual | |||||||||||||||||||||
| will be informed. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Other than on the putting green, the timing of a stroke begins when it is the player's turn and he | |||||||||||||||||||||
| can play without interference or distraction. Time spent determining yardage counts in the time | |||||||||||||||||||||
| taken for the next stroke. On the putting green, timing begins after a player is allowed a | |||||||||||||||||||||
| reasonable amount of time to mark, lift, clean and replace his ball, repair his ball mark, and | |||||||||||||||||||||
| repair ball marks or remove loose impediments on his line of putt. A player has 40 seconds to | |||||||||||||||||||||
| play a stroke, with an additional 20 seconds (total of 60 seconds) for the first to play: | |||||||||||||||||||||
| (a) a stroke on a par-3; (b) a second stroke on a par-4 or par-5; (c) a third stroke on a par-5; | |||||||||||||||||||||
| (d) a stroke near the putting green; or (e) a stroke on the putting green. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| A player being timed, who exceeds the applicable time to play a stroke will be informed | |||||||||||||||||||||
| as soon as practicable. | |||||||||||||||||||||
