ACCIDENTAL MOVEMENT OF A BALL ON A PUTTING GREEN

When a player’s ball lies on the putting green, there is not penalty if the ball or ball marker is accidentally moved by the player, his partner, his opponent or any of their caddies or equipment. The moved ball or ball marker must be replaced as provided in Rules 18-2 and 20-1. This Local Rule applies only when the player’s ball or ball marker lies on the putting green and any movement is accidental. Note: If it is determined that a player’s ball on the putting green was moved as a result of wind, water or some other natural cause, such as the effects of gravity, the ball must be played as it lies from its new location. A ball marker moved in such circumstances is replaced.

DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICES AS PER RULES OF GOLF Rule 14.3/0.5

These are allowed providing they measure distance only. Should a device measure other conditions that might affect his/her play (e.g. gradient, wind speed, temperature etc), the player is in breach of Rule 14.3 for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether such additional functions are actually used.
