SLOW PLAY

If a group of golfers falls one clear hole behind the group in front, the slow group must invite the group behind it to play through. If play is delayed on account of a lost ball, the group playing behind should be invited to play through.

The slow group of players or the group with the lost ball is then required to take positions on the course out of play and shall remain stationary until the invited group has played through. The invited group must play through once the invitation has been received, in order that following groups will not be delayed. A group also must step aside and let the group behind play through anytime the Palyer Assistants so instructs.
