However, we encourage people to use their imagination to come up with new ideas to promote the game of golf through these events. After all, the goal is to raise money for the Foundation and all the wonderful charities are participants support. * Use this opportunity to connect with your members on a whole different level.

SMILING FORE LIFE PROGRAM MAKES A LASTING IMPACTn April 2010, the South Florida PGA Foundation created Smiling Fore Life, a program encouraging SFPGA Professionals to visit local children’s hospitals weekly. These visits help bring golf into the lives of children who may be experiencing hard-ship, and it allows them an opportunity to forget about their challenges and enjoy a pleasurable new activity.

Now in its third year, the Smiling Fore Life program has seen numerous successes. The program has expanded to five loca-tions throughout the section, impacting countless families. For most children who participate in the program, it offers a won-derful distraction from their hospital stay. Golf gives them something to look forward to every week, as well as an activity to focus on that they have control over in an otherwise uncontrollable situation.

An example of this success comes from our original location: Joe DiMaggio Children’s Hospital in Hollywood. While there, a young man had become a regular in the weekly program, always excited when it was golf time. After the SFPGA Foundation installed a putting green at the hospital last fall, this young man received a putter as a gift and could often be found practicing his putting, even during non-golf times.

After being absent from golf for a few weeks, Dave Cunliffe, a PGA Professional involved in the program, inquired where the young man was, as he was a regular in the group. Dave learned that the boy had undergone a heart transplant and was not able to participate for a little while. Dave understood that when he was able to, the youngster would be back at golf, and wanted to do something that would cheer him up and help him to get excited and ready to play. Working for the Don Law Golf Academy, Dave came across some donated clubs and put together a set of clubs for the young man.

After a few weeks, while he still wasn’t healthy enough to participate in the class, the youngster did come to watch his friends participate, just to be around the game he was learning to love. While presenting the boy with his new set of clubs, Dave was able to speak with him about PGA Tour member Erik Compton, who has successfully undergone 2 heart transplants, and is succeeding in the professional golf arena.

Because of the South Florida PGA Foundation’s Smiling Fore Life program, this boy has found a new sport that has given him something to look forward to during his treatments. For that hour every week, he is a golfer, not a patient in the hospital. Because of his new clubs, it will be easier for him to continue with the game once he returns home, and regains his strength. Through this program, he has also found a new role model and tour pro, who has been through similar health struggles and has enjoyed success as a professional athlete.

The Smiling Fore Life program has been able to impact juniors and their families, while giving them an enjoyable experience to look forward to every week. For more information on the program, please visit our website here. If you would like to be involved with or make a contribution to the Smiling Fore Life program, please contact Meredith Schechter at [email protected].

RULES WITH DREW RULE 33-2d

MAN VS NATURELast summer I wrote an article on Mother Nature caus-ing havoc at the AT&T National event at Congressional Golf Club outside of Washington DC where mid-sum-mer storms blew through the area knocking down trees and bleachers, leaving all kinds of debris in her wake. Well, if you’ve been able to tune into any PGA Tour ac-tion thus far this year you know that Mother Nature has reared her ugly head again. The Tour has had to deal with high winds in Hawaii, fog in California and most recently, snow in Arizona. Just as I did last June, I took those situations and related them to the Rules of Golf for this month’s segment of Rules with Drew.

The Hyundai Championship, contested the first week of January had extremely high wind gusts forcing the Tour to suspend and even cancel rounds. For instance, the first pairing of the Championship, Ricky Fowler and Jason Dufner made it through eight holes before the round was cancelled. Later that week the Tour tried again to start round one and did so but eventually had to suspend play and ultimately cancel the round again when conditions went from bad to worse. Rule 33-2d gives the committee the authority to cancel a round. It states, “If the Committee or its authorized representa-tive considers that for any reason the course is not in a playable condition or that there are circumstances that render the proper playing of the game impossible, it may, in match play or stroke play, order a temporary suspension of play or, in stroke play, declare play null and void and cancel all scores for the round in ques-tion. When a round is canceled, all penalties incurred in that round are canceled.” 2012 US Open winner, Webb Simpson, who was playing behind Fowler and Dufner was sitting at 3 under par through eight holes. Unfortunately for Webb, his score was wiped out when the round was cancelled. There was only one other player under par at the time the round was cancelled.

Rule 33-2d gives the Committee the authority to cancel a round and void all scores but are there any guide-lines for when a round should be cancelled? Decision

33-2d/1 states, “There is no hard-and-fast rule (when to cancel a round). The proper action depends on the cir-cumstances in each case and must be left to the judg-ment of the Committee. Generally, a round should be canceled only in a case where it would be grossly unfair not to cancel it. For example, if some competitors begin a round under extremely adverse weather conditions, conditions subsequently worsen and further play that day is impossible, it would be unfair to the competitors who started not to cancel the round.” Decision 33-2d/1 perfectly sums up the situation at the Hyundai. The first round began under high winds. As the round progressed the winds got worse ultimately leading to golf balls being blown off the greens by the high gusts. As the forecast called for those sustained gusts the rest of the day, the Tour was forced to cancel the round.

Last month at the WGC-Accenture Match Play Champion-ship in Arizona the Tour had to deal with another curve ball tossed by Mother Nature, snow. Just three hours and 42 minutes into the first round matches, play was sus-pended by the committee when rain and sleet turned to snow. The end result was two inches of snow blanket-ing the entire course. The Rules of Golf define snow as either casual water or a loose impediment at the option of the player. Given that snow falls under two different categorizes, the player, depending on the circumstance, can proceed under Rule 23 or 25, depending on which Rule would be more advantageous for him/her. For in-stance, let’s assume that a player’s ball lies in a bunker

on a small pile of accumulated snow. If the snow was treated as a loose impediment, the player would not be permitted to touch the snow (Rule 13-4) and the only re-lief available would cost him/her a stroke under Rule 28. On the other hand, if the snow is treated as casual water, the player may take free relief under Rule 25-1bii(a). The player would also be permitted to play the ball as it lies and even touch the snow in the bunker with his club prior to making a stroke (Decision 13-4/7).

How would you rule if there was a small accumulation of snow on the putting green between your ball and the hole and your ball was on the putting green? If the snow is treated as a loose impediment, the player is permitted to remove the snow without restriction provided s/he doesn’t push any of it down. If the snow is treated as casual water, the player may take free relief under Rule 25-1biii. Howev-er, if the player treats the snow as casual water, s/he must not try to remove any of the snow as doing so would be a breach of Rule 16-1a for which the penalty is two strokes (Decision 16-1a/1). The status of the snow dictates what we can and cannot do under the Rules which could either hurt or hinder the player.

Hopefully you never have to deal with either of the two is-sues the Tour dealt with earlier this year, especially snow given our geographic location. However, if you are present-ed with an issue requiring you to cancel a round, just try to do what you feel is the most equitable for the entire field keeping in mind Decision 33-2d/1.
