Too bad once off tee

a. General

Except as permitted by the Rules, when a player's ball is in play, if:

(i) the player, his partner or either of their caddies:

lifts or moves the ball,

touches it purposely (except with a club in the act of addressing the ball), or

causes it to move, or

(ii) the equipment of the player or his partner causes the ball to move,

the player incurs a penalty of one stroke.

If the ball is moved, it must be replaced, unless the movement of the ball occurs after the player has begun the stroke or the backward movement of the club for the stroke and the stroke is made.
