“The rules of golf are the foundation of everything that makes golf so uniquely rewarding. They create a sense of universal fairness, and a time-honored tradition that allows the game to be played with steadfast integrity, often without anyone watching.

Every rule has a purpose: to protect the challenge and design of the obstacles you encounter, preserve the essence and surrounding landscape, and keep the game true for everyone who plays it. Embrace them, and you’ll discover that they don’t limit your experience, they elevate it.” - BrookeLin Powers, (c) 2026, Where’s the Golf Ball?
