"If a contestant's infraction supports his partner's play, the partner incurs the applicable penalty in addition to any penalty incurred by the contestant. In all other cases, the penalty incurred by a competitor for a breach of the rules does not apply to his partner."²
Before you consciously or unconsciously commit a golf rule violation, you should always be aware of the effect of penalties in golf. To master the rules of golf, we recommend various golf books from Albrecht Verlag or Köllen Golf. The well-known golf author Yves C. Ton- That has written numerous golf books on the rules of golf and golf etiquette. You can find many golf rule books by Yves C. Ton- That in the online bookshop under golf literature at golf-shop.de.
