» Ball marks, shoe damage such as spike marks and scrapes or indentations caused by equipment or a flagstick are regarded as damage to the putting green and therefore may be repaired. Also included would be old hole plugs, turf plugs, seams of cut turf and scrapes or indentations from maintenance tools or vehicles, animal tracks or hoof indentations, and embedded objects such as a stone, acorn, hail or tee and indentations caused by them.

Generally, if there is no caddie, the player closest to the hole will be regarded as the one to look after and tend the flagstick when applicable. Try not to hang around after putting; therefore, after everyone has holed out, immediately walk to the next tee.
