Local Rules

Out of Bounds

Defined by white stakes, perimeter fences and walls, and the driving range safety net.

Penalty Areas

Identified by red and yellow stakes and defined by natural boundaries.

Drop Zone — Hole 14

If a ball is in, or virtually certain to be in, the penalty area on hole 14, in addition to penalty relief under Rule 17.1, there is an extra option to drop a ball in the designated drop zone with one penalty stroke. The drop zone is a relief area under Rule 14.3.

Abnormal Course Conditions (Including Immovable Obstructions)

All artificially surfaced buggy paths, sprinkler heads, valve boxes, drainage covers, fixed course furniture and buildings are immovable obstructions.

If an immovable obstruction on or close to the putting green is:

• On or within two club-lengths of the putting green;
• On the putting line of a ball on an area cut to fairway height or less;
• And the ball is within two club-lengths of the obstruction;

Free relief may be taken under Rule 16.1b.

Ground Under Repair (GUR)

All staked trees and tree wells, unfinished course work areas, vehicle marks and areas lined by white paint are defined as GUR. Young vegetation, landscape areas and the ice plant bed on the right side of hole 9, identified by blue stakes, are GUR and are defined by natural boundaries. Free relief is available for these GUR under Rules 16.1b and 16.1f.

A drop zone under Rule 14.3 is available as an extra option, with free relief for a ball in, or virtually certain to be in, the ice plant bed on the right side of hole 9.
