Apologies Marcalex if I misunderstand you but I cannot agree with your explanation
You State. "My proposition of explanation :
1. ""C plays from the tee and B asks what club he used. C answers and B makes sure that A has heard the answer. -> D8-1/25 (B and C are penalized. Penalties do not apply to partners)
2. B plays from the tee and C asks him what club he used. B does not answer and A plays from the tee. D plays from the tee. -> D8-1/25 do not apply because B does not reply. So D gets a penalty (R8-1).
Conclusion : A is the only player not being penalized.""
You appear to be saying in 2 above.
That if a player (C in this case) -- asks the question - then both he and his partner(D) will be penalised if B does not answer .
But if a player ( C In this case) asks the question - then only he ( and not partner D) will be penalised if he answers?
There is no rationale to this premise.
When C asks the question and commits the breach - the only possible two answers are -
C only gets penalised or both C and D get penalised.
The answer cannot depend on whether B answers.( that would be B's breach- not C or D.)
Whether a player or partners get penalised depends on whether the breach has assisted the partner or adversely affected the opponents in match play only?
No Wendy needs to explain clearly the answer posted by MGA.
