 > Yellow stakes/lines represent a water hazard.   Red stakes/lines represent a lateral water hazard.   In both cases you can (1)  play the ball as it lies with no penalty.   (2) take a one stroke penalty and play the shot again from where the original shot was last played or drop behind the water hazard with no limit to distance.    Keep the point where the original ball last crossed the margin of the hazard between the hole and the spot where  the drop is made.   Lateral Water Hazard   > (1)   Drop within 2 club-lengths of the spot where your ball last crossed the hazard and no closer to the hole.   (2)   drop within two club-lengths of a spot on the opposite margin of the hazard, equidistant from and no nearer the hole.
