　　15/6.5 Ball Changed During Play of Hole to Aid Identification

　　Q:A and B realized after playing their tee shots on a par-5 hole that they were playing balls with identical markings. Based on the location of both tee shots, A knew which ball was his. To avoid subsequent confusion, A lifted his ball before playing his second shot, substituted a ball with different markings and played out the hole. Is this permissible?

　　A:No. A was not entitled to substitute a ball.

　　In match play, A loses the hole -- Rule 15-2.

　　In stroke play, A incurs the general penalty of two strokes under Rule 18 for incorrectly substituting a ball, but there is no additional penalty for lifting the ball without authority (see Rule 15-2 and the penalty statement under Rule 18). (Revised)

　　15/6.5 在打一洞的过程中，为了帮助辨别球，对球进行了更换

　　问：A和B在一个PAR 5洞发球球后意识到他们打得的球有同样的标识。因为两人都是刚发球，所以A知道哪个球是自己的。为了避免随后发生混乱，A在打第2杆前捡起他的球，用不同标识的球替换，并打完该不同中。这是允许的吗？

　　答：不允许。A没有权替换球。

　　在比洞赛上，A输了该洞的比赛——规则15-2。

　　在比杆赛上，按照规则18，A因为不正确的替换球要被罚两杆，但不会因为没有授权就捡起球而被加罚。（见规则15-2，以及规则18的处罚规定）（修正）
