                              to determine between fairway and rough, the ball shall be played as rough.

                    11. EMBEDDED BALL rule in effect. A ball embedded in its own pitch mark in any closely mown area through

                            the green may be lifted, cleaned and dropped, without penalty, as near as possible to the spot where it lay 

                            but not nearer the hole.  “Closely mown area” means any area of the course, including paths through the rough,

                            cut to fairway height or less.
