I thought I would be the first to begin Golf 2017.
News so far, R&A are proposing rule changes. Some of them for club golfers are, you can only spend 3 mins looking for your balls instead of 5, you will be able to putt out on the green with the flag in the new hole, there will be no penalty for moving loose impediments in a hazard and players will be able to ground their club everywhere except in the bunker, when having a free/penalty drop you can drop the ball one inch from the ground rather than from shoulder height and there is no penalty if you accidentally move your ball.
Other news Tiger has still not completed 4 rounds of golf in competitive plan and Rory has played a round with President Trump.
Finally one more rule I didn't tell you about is you can now only clean your balls once during a round!
