Reply to this topic If you see someone marking the ball with the marker on the hole side of the ball, make sure the ball is replaced appropriately.
Moving the Ball-Marker. If your ball marker is on or near the line of player's putt, you may be asked to move your ball-marker. The accepted method is to use your putter head.
Place the heel of the putter head by the ball-marker, lined up with something that won't move. Take the ball-marker away and place it at the toe of the putter. Occasionally you may have to repeat this to clear the ball-marker from the putting line.
Remember to go through the process in reverse before replacing your ball. During the Open Championship at Turnberry, I heard one of the scoreboard attendants shout to Tom Weiskopf as he was about to putt. He had earlier moved his marker out of the way of another player's putting line, and the lad who shouted hadn't seen him put the marker back, so was concerned that he was about to incur a penalty.
In fact, he HAD replaced the marker and the scoreboard attendant hadn't seen him do it. Tom Weiskopf was known to have quite a fiery personality but, thankfully, he seemed to understand that he'd been interrupted with the best of intentions! On the Fairway. When you are allowed to lift a ball on the fairway for example, when preferred lies are in force , pushing a tee peg into the ground in front of the ball the side nearer the hole is perfectly acceptable.
The idea is that when replacing the ball in line with the rules, the marker tee peg in this case doesn't get in the way, making it easier to place the ball within 6 inches, not nearer the hole. Preparing for the Shot. All the comments above about noise and movement should be applied not just to anyone in the process of playing a shot but also during their preparation for the shot. I have known people to talk right up to the moment players begins their swing, or to swish away making violent practice swings while another player is going through their preparation for a shot.
That shows no understanding of the game, no respect for someone else's concentration, and is very poor etiquette. It will certainly win you no friends. I even knew one player, notorious for his chatter throughout a round, who once talked right through his own swing, barely pausing as he struck the ball, so keen was he to get the point of his story across.
