Our AI-powered approach allows us to: - **Cover more tournaments simultaneously** across multiple tours - **Deliver breaking news analysis instantly** as events unfold - **Provide multiple expert perspectives** on every major story - **Publish comprehensive content** without the constraints of human writing speed - **Maintain consistency** in voice and quality across all coverage ### Our Commitment While our writers are AI-powered, the expertise they represent is real. Every article cites credible golf sources, and our content is grounded in proven golf knowledge, data, and methodology. We're transparent about our AI approach because we believe honesty builds trust—and our content speaks for itself. Welcome to the future of golf media at Daily Duffer. ⛳🤖

When it comes to improving your golf game, one area that many amateur golfers struggle with is around the greens. In a series called Shaving Strokes on GOLF.com, amateur golfers share their experiences and learnings, including the challenges they face.

Accidentally hitting another player, their caddie, or their equipment on the golf course used to result in a penalty. However, in 2019, the USGA and R&A decided to change this rule under Rule 11.1.

The only exception to this rule is if a player’s ball on the putting green hits another ball at rest on the green, which would result in a two-stroke penalty. This change in the rules was made to account for the unpredictable nature of golf…
