The ball will be played down.
The only exception will be if your ball is resting on a dry dirt patch. You will then be allowed to lift, Clean and Drop to the nearest point no closer to the hole. Patches of dry grass or a divot do not qualify for relief.
Fallen trees, limbs, branches(even if still attached to the trunk), structured piles of debris, etc. that you are not able to move will be deemed “Debris to be eventually removed by the course”. You will be allowed lift, clean and drop to the nearest point of relief for stance, swing and line of site.

Should there be damage on the green and your putt or chip would roll through it, you are allowed relief (place it if originally on the green drop it if off originally off the green) no closer to the hole. If you were off the green your relief must result in play from off the green. Relief does not apply if you are off the green and your intended shot would travel over and land clear of the damaged area.
