Last weeks rules contest
I don't understand the answer. According to 2-5, the committee may consider a claim after scores have been posted if it was based on facts previously unknown by the player. Additionally, rule 9 states that if a player gives wrong information, regardless of intent, he loses the hole.
Explain please,
cheers,
Kris

11-15-2004 11:08 AM #2In match play, at the 18th hole, Bill, by mistake, reports an incorrect score to Joe that causes Joe to concede the match. A correct score would result in an all square match. After the result is posted, Bill realizes his mistake and tells Joe the correct score. Then, Joe claims the match. Should the committee adjust the score?
No The Committee should determine that the match stands as played.
2 - 5. Doubt as to Procedure; Disputes and Claims In match play, if a doubt or dispute arises between the players, a player may make a claim. If no duly authorized representative of the Committee is available within a reasonable time, the players must continue the match without delay. The Committee may consider a claim only if the player making the claim notifies his opponent (i) that he is making a claim, (ii) of the facts of the situation and (iii) that he wants a ruling. The claim must be made before any player in the match plays from the next teeing ground or, in the case of the last hole of the match, before all players in the match leave the putting green.
A later claim may not be considered by the Committee unless it is based on facts previously unknown to the player making the claim and he had been given wrong information (Rules 6-2a and 9) by an opponent.
Once the result of the match has been officially announced, a later claim may not be considered by the Committee unless it is satisfied that the opponent knew he was giving wrong information.
