    What was the longest a pro golfer waited for a putt to fall on the edge of a cup before they stated the ten second rule ?

    Question #78242. Asked by mroneputttt. (Apr 03 07 11:25 AM)

    "There were instances of players waiting longer than a minute, so in 1964 the Rules were changed to allow no more that a few seconds to determine if the ball is at rest.

    That was vague, so in 1984, it was changed to 10 seconds. The Rule reached its current form in 1988 after Denis Watson was penalized two strokes for waiting 35 seconds for his ball to fall"
