    Interclub match last Wednesday , matchplay . Player A marked and picked up ball belonging to opposition on 2nd play off hole (on green). when mentioned to him , replaced it and proceeded to play own ball and par hole . opposition also parred hole for half.
    A. Should this have been a penalty ?
    B. Player As team won on 21st knocking other team out of comp. Is it too late to mention now ? No one called it at the time despite 20 people watching.

    Thanks.

    Think all is ok here, no penalty.

    This seems to suggest otherwise ?

    Did they mark the ball without permission?

    There may be a different way of looking at it but in effect, you ignored a rule of golf. Ignoring a rule breach in match play is allowed as long as you don't mention it during play of that hole, you have to wait until the next stroke on the next hole to mention it.

    I'm pretty certain it's to late, it was too late by the time you teed off on the next hole.

    I would have thought the same , but just wanted to query it. Surprised no one picked up on it at the time as there was quite a few people around us due to it being the final match. Only afterwards I started querying it with myself

    A lot people want to win matches with golf so a lot of times little things like that get ignored,
    I had a guy show his partner a line bye running his finger along the green to the hole, I mentioned after hole he was breaking a rule so not to do it again but I didn't claim the hole

    And that's your prerogative in matchplay.
