　　13-4/28 Grounding Club, Moving Loose Impediments and Improving Area of Intended Swing in Hazard
　　Q:In stroke play, a competitors ball is in a hazard. He takes a practice swing and in so doing moves loose impediments and touches the ground in the hazard. He also bends a shrub with his hand, improving the area of his intended swing. What is the penalty?

　　A:As a single act (i.e., the practice swing) resulted in two Rules being breached (Rule 13-4b and Rule 13-4c), in equity (Rule 1-4), a single penalty of two strokes is applied. However, the competitor also incurs a penalty of two strokes for improving the area of his intended swing by bending a shrub (Rule 13-2).

　　The practice swing and the bending of the shrub are different acts that resulted in the breach of two Rules and both penalties are applied giving a total penalty of four strokes.

　　13-4/28 把球杆放到球后地面上，移动散置障碍物，改善障碍区内意欲挥杆的区域

　　问：在比杆赛上，一名比赛者的球在障碍区。他练习了一次挥杆，但因此移动了散置障碍物，接触到了障碍区的地面。他还用手折弯了一个矮树，改善了意欲挥杆的区域。这时应该受什么处罚？

　　答：因为这一个动作（比如练习挥杆）违反了两个规则（规则13-4b和规则13-4c），本着公正的原则（规则1-4），单纯的处罚两杆适用。不过，比赛者通过折弯短树改善意欲挥杆的区域而要被罚两杆。

　　练习挥杆和折弯短树是两个不同的动作，结果是违反了两个规则，两个处罚都适用，他要被罚4杆。
