R&A Rule 7-1 states no practice during a stroke play event. (Match play practice is OK). The only explanation for the Jiminez example is that the Committee allowed said practice - as permitted as a note to 7-1. Pat - it was hard to hear about that. I couldn't believe it when I first heard. Granted, as in the Jiminez case, you may have been able to take it to the committee. Oh well - like you say, live and learn! Interesting, theidiot.

A pro on the European Tour told me this. It happened to Jimenez once, he didn't know a rule and thus only got a 2 shot penalty and NOT DQ. Maybe the R&A and USGA differ on this here area.
