In the fall, we used to joke about the "gallery rule"...if we had a gallery

our ball would be right here...drop...play on. It beats looking for a ball with a ton of leaves on the ground. This rule was first invented when playing TPC Avenal when they had the rough up after the PGA would roll through.

These cases have made it to court in the US in the past -- BB Hokie 10/04/2018 10:00AM

Depends on what, if any, negligence she can prove ** -- Nova Hokie 95 10/04/2018 10:16AM

Against the ball manufacturer for not making a ball that self-corrects -- VTHokie2000 10/04/2018 10:36AM

Haven't followed closely - how far away was she from the tee box? -- Dan1993 10/04/2018 09:43AM

She was likely playing Words w/ Friends on her iPhone ** -- OXVT 10/04/2018 10:17AM

Should have paid more attention to her EYEphone ** -- MAHokie69 10/04/2018 11:07AM

No...she was up by the green ** -- JoesterVT 10/04/2018 09:45AM

Is she asking fore damages? ** -- DJ Golf 10/04/2018 09:26AM

That would be the fairway to handle it ** -- JoesterVT 10/04/2018 09:31AM

Not according to the National Golfers Association -- TheNuke 10/04/2018 10:43AM

I'd hit it ** -- FfxStationHokie 10/04/2018 08:49AM

So is it the driver's fault? First rule of golf is to get back behind the -- Vtskier1 10/04/2018 08:35AM

They just need to build giant nets along the fairways! ** -- OXVT 10/04/2018 08:38AM

Like TopGolf. ** -- RoswellGAHokie 10/04/2018 10:13AM

Before or after she was hit? ** -- FfxStationHokie 10/04/2018 08:02AM

Not sure if you saw this from Monday -- statmanfromHCyrs 10/04/2018 08:45AM

She probably didn't read the back of her ticket ** -- Brown Water 10/04/2018 07:52AM

She's lucky. If that ball hits her BETWEEN the eyes, she may be dead. ** -- 48zip 10/04/2018 07:50AM

Or lodged in her eye -- VTHokie2000 10/04/2018 10:57AM

Ah yes, the bright side ** -- FlintMS 10/04/2018 08:58AM
