Billy Oceans Carribean Queen Golf Rules Question

Sawasdee Ka, here’s what Billy Ocean wrote to us today: “I was playing the other day with a real beauty from the West Indies and it was my turn to hit. I was driving a cart and was a bit tipsy and I ran over my ball and moved it. Was that a penalty shot?

Billy, the girl who you were playing with sounds like a real carribean queen. Anyway, to answer your questions, yes, that’s a penalty shot. However, if your beauty had been driving she would have been penalized. The cart is considered your equipment.
