规则 DECISIONS：14-2/4

　　球童不小心站立在打球线在球后方的延长线上

　　球员进行击球时，球员的球童不小心站立在打球线在球后方的延长线上。该球童正观看另一球员在下一发球区打球。球员和球童都没有意识到球童的位置。按照规则14-2b，球员要受处罚吗？

　　不用。规则14-2b的目的是在球员击球时禁止球童站在球员后面给球员给予位置上的提示或辅助球员打球。该案例中，球童没有这样的目的。如果击球过程中，球员的球童不小心站立在推击线在球后方的延长线上，同样采用该裁定。

Caddie Inadvertently Sts on Extension of Line of Play Behind Ball

A players caddie inadvertently stood on an extension of the players line of play behind the ball when the player made a stroke. The caddie was watching another player play from the next tee. Neither the player nor his caddie was aware that the caddie was so located. Was the player subject to penalty under Rule 14-2b?

No. The purpose of Rule 14-2b is to prohibit a caddie from positioning himself behind the player while the player makes a stroke in order to advise the player on alignment or otherwise assist him. In this case, the caddie was not so positioned. The same ruling would apply if the player’s caddie inadvertently stood on an extension of the line of putt behind the ball during the stroke.(Revised in 2006)
