Tee shot out of bounds: which stroke is the next one?
Your tee shot goes out of bounds. You tee up another ball and play again from the teeing area. Which stroke is that?
Answer
Your third
Out of bounds means stroke and distance: your first stroke counts and you add one penalty stroke. So the new ball from the teeing area is your third stroke.
