Final answer:
Grass cuttings left on the course are not ground under repair unless defined by the committee. The statement is: True.
Step-by-step explanation:
The statement is: True. In golf course management, grass cuttings that are deliberately left on the course and are not intended to be removed are not considered ground under repair unless the committee defines them as such. Ground under repair refers to areas on the course where the golfer is allowed to take relief without penalty due to abnormal course conditions.
For example, if the grass cuttings are cleared away or raked into piles, they are not considered ground under repair. However, if the committee designates certain areas with grass cuttings as ground under repair, golfers are allowed to take relief from those areas.
