4. IMMOVABLE OBSTRUCTIONS (Rule 16.1)
a) All staked trees.
b) All sprinkler heads.
c) Man made paths.
d) Manhole covers/standpipes.
In addition, if such an obstruction, within two club lengths of the putting green of the hole being played intervenes on the line of play between the ball and the hole, the player may obtain relief without penalty as follows: If the ball lies off the putting green but not in a penalty area and is within two club lengths of the intervening obstruction, it may be dropped at the nearest point of relief but not in a penalty area or on a putting green.

5. WRONG PUTTING GREEN (Rule 13.1f)
A ball coming to rest on the wrong putting green or apron (which includes the entire area between the cross bunker and green on the 7th hole) must be dropped at the nearest point of relief, not nearer the hole, not in a penalty area and not on a putting green.

6. GROUND UNDER REPAIR (Rule 16.1)
a) Areas of ground under repair are marked either with signs bearing these words (or the abbreviation “GUR”) or surrounded by a white line and include all temporary greens. Play is prohibited from all areas so marked and players must take relief in accordance with rule 14.3.
b) Damage caused by the installation of drainage or irrigation constitutes an abnormal ground condition and, if a player’s ball lies in one of these areas or a player’s stance is affected, relief may be taken under rule 16.1. This relief option applies anywhere within the general area.
