Penalty Areas: How to remember the
difference between Yellow and Red
By Suzanne Olsen
June 1, 2022
Some Penalty Areas (PA) are marked red in
spots, and yellow in others, so what to do?
The most important thing to determine is
the spot where your ball last crossed the edge
of the PA. The edge of a PA extends up and
down. This is your reference point for taking
relief with a one-stroke penalty.
Bear in mind that you may hit out of a PA
without a penalty. Not all PAs have water
in them after all. Even if you decide to hit
out of a PA and fail to get it out, or hit it
OB, or into an unplayable lie outside of the
PA, you may still proceed under the PA Rule
(Rule 17.1d), using the spot where the ball
last crossed the edge of the PA as the
reference point for taking relief – taking the
penalty stroke for OB or unplayable, plus
the penalty for PA relief.
