What is the penalty for a ball landing in the water?

There is no penalty for the ball landing in the water...only for taking it out without a stroke. Technically, (assuming "the water" means in a water hazard) you could play it out of the hazard (with certain restrictions). It might just barely be in the margin of the water and you might be able to play it out without penalty. Assuming you don't want to do that, THEN you take ONE penalty stroke for taking the ball out of the water. You drop (according to the type of hazard) and then play your next stroke. The usual count is "one in, two out"...you hit one stroke in the water, used one stroke taking it out, and then hit your next stroke (hitting 3).


What is the penalty for teeing off in the wrong area in matchplay golf?

If you play from the wrong teeing area, in strokeplay, there is a two shot penalty, but you must correct your mistake before playing a stroke from the next teeing ground. All strokes taken up to this point don't count, so it is essentially 3 off the tee. If you fail to correct your mistake you are disqualified. It is very different however in matchplay, if a stroke is taken from the wrong teeing ground, your opponent may simply ask you to cancel that stroke and replay the shot from the correct tee. These rules apply for teeing from outside the teeing ground also.
