The latest Rules revision removed the penalty for pulling a T.C. Chen — a double-hit shot now just counts as one stroke. But does that also hold true on the putting surface?

Rule 10.1(a) applies anywhere on the course, from the highest of rough to the shortest of grass. If you believe your opponent’s double hit was no accident, and if you are convinced that’s the case you’re free to bring the matter to the committee’s attention for adjudication as to whether Timmy Two Times played a moving ball. But that seems almost as sad as intentionally double-hitting a putt.

Rule 10.1(a) Fairly Striking the Ball

In making a stroke:

The player must fairly strike at the ball with the head of the club such that there is only momentary contact between the club and the ball and must not push, scrape or scoop the ball.

If the player’s club accidentally hits the ball more than once, there has been only one stroke and there is no penalty.
