What is the golden rule of golf?

Play the ball as it lies. Don't move, bend, or break anything growing or fixed, except in fairly taking your stance or swing. Don't press anything down. You may lift natural objects not fixed or growing, except in a water hazard or bunker.

LINKS Magazine’s "A Simpler Game, Presented by IBM,” is a series of stories promoting firm, fast and natural playing conditions. For golf to thrive in these challenging times, it makes sense to raise awareness in favor of a simpler game. For more information, visit www.linksmagazine.com. Since the humble beginnings of organized golf, more than two and a half centuries ago, almost every element of the game has changed and grown. But surely no aspect has expanded more dramatically—and some would say needlessly—than the Rules. Back in 1744 the original Rules of Golf issued by the Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers numbered just 13—340 well-chosen words covered everything from lost balls to “wattery filth.” By contrast, today’s Rulebook weighs in at 126 pages. There are 34 Rules, with 122 sections and 106 subsections— more than 25,000 words in all. In addition, there’s a separate Decisions book— covering what the Rules don’t—and that one is nearly 600 pages thick. Do we need all this? Well, in one sense, it was inevitable. Those first 13 Rules applied to just one golf club, one course. Now there are nearly 50,000 courses around the world, no two of them alike. As a consequence, all sorts of odd situations have arisen. Had the Rules not expanded a bit, the disputes would have been innumerable and unresolvable. Like the tax code, however, it’s all become too complicated for the average human being. “The weep for simplification of the Rules of Golf is a stock-in-trade of the journalist during the winter months.Countless words on the subject have been poured out to an ever-tolerant public, but still the long-sought simplification does not come.” So wrote Henry Longhurst, 75 years ago, and his words remain true today. What has been needed for a long time is a simplified Rule book, something brief, comprehensive yet comprehensible, and endorsed by the USGA and R&A for the benefit of the world’s weekend golfers. Until that happens, we present the next best thing—something called The 10 Golden Rules of Golf. A version of these first appeared back in 1982, the result of a collaboration between the USGA and GOLF Magazine. They were an instant success as 60,000 people wrote in to order 10 Golden Rules bagtags. In the intervening three decades, however, they have been utterly ignored. So LINKS Magazine has taken up the cause, and the USGA has partnered with us, updating the original 10 with a few tweaks and clarifications. Our 10 Golden Rules are not quite as terse as those the Scots came up with, but they do reflect golf in the 21st century and we think they cover 90 percent of the situations that golfers routinely encounter in the course of an 18-hole round. Here they are, in the spirit of a simpler game.
