　　Q: A players ball entered a rabbit hole, the mouth of which was in bounds but only about a foot from a boundary fence. The rabbit hole sloped steeply down below the fence, so that the ball came to rest beyond the boundary line. What is the ruling?

　　A: Whether or not a ball is out of bounds depends on where it lies in relation to the boundary of the course and this must be measured vertically upwards or downwards - see Definition of "Out of Bounds." In the case cited, the ball was lying out of bounds and Rule 27-1 applied. Relief could not be obtained under Rule 25-1, i.e., from a hole made by a burrowing animal.

　　问：一名球员的球落进了兔子洞，洞口是界内，但距离边界围栏只有大约一英尺。兔子洞在围栏下面，很陡，所以球停在了边界线上，这时适用什么规则？

　　答：球是否在界外要看它停的地方与球场边界的关系，必须垂直的向上或向下测量——见“界外”的定义。上述的情况，球停在了界外，适用规则27-1。按照规则25-1，补球是不允许的，也就是从洞穴动物制造的洞进行补球。
