Get a Ruling • Re: Ball moved when marked

I was thinking of a situation where the marker was placed downwind and down hill of the ball, with something more substantial than a flat marker (a casino chip or tee say), preventing the ball from moving away by a strong gust.
If the intent was so transparent - placing a 'chock' next to the ball - I would have no problem breaching that situation against 1-2 if it operates as intended (blocking the ball's movement). If it made no difference and the ball blew away anyway it would be play as lies and it would be difficult to breach unless you had a confession of crime, IMO.
