Does the USGA Rules Book define what can be used as a ball marker on green?
I believe marking your ball on the green serves two purposes:
1) Allows you to clean your ball.
2) As a courtesy to other players, it removes your ball as a distraction from their field of vision.
That being said, I've noticed often some players will mark their ball spot using a tee. Obviously, a ball cannot roll over a tee, so it COULD be viewed as an obstruction; but usually, a tee-marker is NOT in one's Line of Putt.
However, it could also be viewed as a distraction...a tee sticking up from the green surface.
Does the USGA address specifically what can or cannot be used as a ball marker on the green? I cannot find a ruling.
Is using a "tee" sanctioned by the USGA?
Ever see tour pros mark their ball using a "tee"?
using a tee is permitted.......if it is in another player's line, then it can be moved until after they putt.
