/ A [golf] ball sliced or hooked into the \

| fairway at a point equal to the         |
| distance it carried or rolled into the  |
| rough. Such veering right or left       |
| frequently results from friction        |
| between the face of the club and the    |
| cover of the ball and the player should |
| not be penalized for the erratic        |
| behavior of the ball resulting from     |
| such uncontrollable physical phenomena. |
