CARE OF THE COURSE
HOLES IN BUNKERS:
Before leaving a bunker players should carefully fill up and smooth over all holes and footprints made by themselves.
TURF DAMAGE:
Through the green, a player should ensure that any turf cut or displaced by them is replaced at once and pressed down. Alternatively, if the turf is not able to be replaced then the divot should be filled with the seed & soil mix available in the portable containers and on each power cart. Damage to the putting green should be carefully repaired prior to completion of the hole.
DAMAGE TO THE GREEN:
Players should ensure that, when putting down golf bags, clubs or the flag stick, no harm is caused to the putting green. They should not cause any damage to the hole by standing close to it, in handling the flag stick or in removing the ball from the hole. The flag stick should be properly replaced in the hole before the players leave the putting green. Players should not damage the green by leaning on their putters, particularly when removing their ball from the hole.
