• However, players can purchase a yellow ball for 25 SAR.  If they lose the pink ball, they can play the yellow ball with no scoring penalty throughout the remainder of the round.  If a player loses the pink ball and has not purchased a yellow ball, they are required to add 1 stroke to their score on each hole they are the pink ball in TM.  Example:  B Player hits his pink ball OB and cannot find it on 2.  If he has purchased a yellow ball, he can put it in play and use it the rest of the way with no penalty.  If he does not, he needs to take a +1 penalty on hole 2, 6, 10, 14 and 18.  The yellow ball does not take the place of a pink ball for bonus points as seen above. If you lose the yellow ball, the 1 stroke penalty is then assessed as shown above.
