Q: A player is required or elects to play his next stroke at a spot from which his previous stroke was played. He is able to identify that specific spot by reference to the divot hole which his previous stroke made. He drops a ball immediately behind that divot hole. The ball rolls nearer the hole than the spot from which the previous stroke was played, but not more than two club-lengths from where is was first struck the ground. What is the ruling?
A: Rule 20-2c(vii)(a) requires a ball to be re-dropped if it rolls and comes to rest nearer the hole that "its original position or estimated position…unless otherwise permitted by the Rules." The original position is the spot from which the previous stroke was played. Since the dropped ball rolled nearer the hole than that spot, it must be re-dropped. However, in many such cases the player cannot determine exactly the spot from which his previous stroke was played. In those cases, the player has satisfied the requirements of the Rule if he uses his best endeavors to estimate the spot. The estimated spot is treated as the specific spot (see Rule 20-2b) and the ball must be re-dropped if it rolls nearer the hole than the estimated spot. The same principle applies if the spot where a ball is to be placed is not determinable and the player is required, under Rule 20-3c, to drop the ball as near as possible to the spot where it lay.
问：一名球员被要求或自己选择从他前一杆打球的地方打下一杆。根据前一杆打时削起的草皮，他能判定具体的位置。这名球员立刻在那块草皮后面抛了一个球，球滚到了比前一杆打球地点更接近球洞的地方，但距离第一次击打到地面时的距离不超过两个球杆远。这时适用什么规则？
答：规则20-2c（vii）（a）要求，如果球滚到比原始位置或大概估计的位置更接近球洞时，除非规则允许的情况除外，球员必须重新抛球。原始位置就是前一杆打球的位置。因为球员所抛的球滚到比原始位置更接近球洞的地方，所以必须重新抛球。不过，很多情况下，球员不能正确判定前一杆的打球位置。如果他用最大的努力估计原始位置，也得满足规则的要求。估计的位置可以被看作是特定的位置（见规则20-2b)），而且如果抛球后球滚到比估计的位置更接近球洞的位置，球员还是得重新抛球。如果在无法确定应放置球的地点时，也适用同样的原则，球员被要求按照规则20-3c，必须在尽量接近其原来所在位置的地点抛球。
