March 20, 2025
Situation:
Golfer hit her drive left on hole 15 and landed into a tree which spit her ball left, barely across cart path, and into large river rocks, Player retrieved ball and started to put it down at nearest point of relief but decided that spot wasn't flat enough to get a good swing on it she took a few steps backwards, and then a few more before she hit the ball
After the player hit she was advised that she actually needed to take relief in the "nearest point" not the “nicest place”.
Question:
How should she have proceeded?
