The penalty for a breach of this Rule shall

When the player's ball lies on the putting-

ball is at rest.
The penalty for a breach of this Rule shall
be the loss of the hole.
RULE 31.
Ball
Within Six
Inches, Lifted.
1. When the balls lie within six inches of each
other on the putting-green (the distance to be
measured from their nearest points), the ball
lying nearer to the hole may, at the option of
either the player or the opponent, be lifted
until the other ball is played, and the lifted
ball shall then be replaced as near as possible to
the place where it lay.
