Unplayable lie in a bunker: Thanks Willie Castellon! Please read the new rule!
The New Rule: If a player deems a ball unplayable in the bunker, they now have an option to remove their ball from the sand without going back to the spot of their previous shot. Players can take relief outside of the sand on a line from the hole to where the ball came to rest in the bunker, but at a cost of two penalty strokes (Rule 19.3b). Players are still allowed to drop in the bunker within two club-lengths of the ball, or, behind the ball on a straight line from the hole, for one penalty stroke. But if they want to go out of the sand, under the new rules addition, it will cost an additional stroke.

Points and Standings as of 15 September, 2020
While you may be debating whether fire ants are dangerous, the USGA has already made up its mind. According to Decision 33-8/22, players who are faced with fire ants (or a fire ant hill that could be disturbed) are entitled to proceed under Decision 1-4/10, which allows the player to take a free drop within a club-length of the nearest point of relief from the danger, as long as it’s no nearer to the hole. This Decision stands even if your local Committee has made no such ruling. It may seem odd that your opponent is as well protected from an ant hill as he is from alligators, but then again, you’ve probably never been bitten by a fire ant.
