Justin Rose’s Bold Fence Hop Leads to Unconventional Par Save at Cognizant Classic

In the opening round of the Cognizant Classic, Justin Rose faced a challenging situation when his tee shot at the par-4 13th landed under a boundary fence. Leveraging Rule 18.2a of the Rules of Golf, Rose stood out-of-bounds to play the ball as it was not entirely beyond the boundary edge.

After hopping the fence, he executed a punch shot reaching the fairway for a 64-yard third shot. A skillful pitch left him with a 2-foot putt for par. Despite the unconventional save, Rose finished with a 2-under 69 showcasing a mix of luck and skill.

Luke Donald shared a similar experience, emphasizing the importance of both luck and skill in such situations.
