Last weeks rules contest
May a player make his first stroke from the teeing ground by using a 2-inch tee peg that is placed in a small mound of sand-soil-seed mixture placed by the player to raise his ball 3 inches off the ground?
Yes: Definition of "Tee" and Rule 11-1. In teeing the ball, the tee must be placed in the surface of the teeing ground. The player is entitled to create an irregularity of surface within the teeing ground and play from that irregularity (tuft of turf).
cheers,
Kris

You are correct in your assessment of Rule 11-1.
The player may place the ball on a tee on the surface of the teeing ground.
OR
The player may create an irregularity of surface within the teeing ground and play from that irregularity (tuft of turf).
Not both.
Unfortunately, the Rules Contest answer was inadvertently marked "Yes".
