Golf Ethics Dilemma

image
Posted by Dinesh Thakur 11 Apr 2012
What if you were playing in the club championship tournament finals and the match was halved at the end of 17 holes. You had the honour and hit your ball a modest two hundred fifty yards to the middle of the fairway, leaving a simple six iron to the pin.

Your opponent then hits his ball, lofting it deep into the woods to the right of the fairway. Being the golfing gentleman that you are, you help your opponent look for his ball. Just before the permitted five minute search period ends, your opponent says: 

"Go ahead and hit your second shot and if I don't find it in time, I'll concede the match." 

You hit your ball, landing it on the green, stopping about ten feet from the pin.

About the time your ball comes to rest, you hear your opponent exclaim from deep in the woods: "I found it !". The second sound you hear is a click, the sound of a club striking a ball and the ball comes sailing out of the woods and lands on the green, stopping no more than six inches from the hole.

 
Now here is the ethical dilemma:

Do you pull the cheating bastard's ball out of your pocket and confront him with it or do you keep your mouth shut ???

    Take the smart route and chuck the ball he hit onto the green into a bunker or other convenient hazard

    Help him find the ball and then watch closely as he tries to hit out of the rough. You will play your shot as before and be on the green. You can win without cheating at all!!

    you should have pushed the ball behind a tree and told him you have spotted it. After that, stand there while he plays his next shot. Beats putting the ball in your pocket.. :)
