Match Play tourney going awry.....

Marty and I played our match this morning and finished 18 holes all square. We played three playoff holes and need a ruling as to the finish.
 
Marty gets four strokes in 18 holes because my handicap is six and his is ten. We started our playoff on #1. I pared it and Marty made a bogey. That is the #1 handicap hole, so it was clear that #1 was a push and we played #2. We both birdied #2. As that is the #3 handicap hole we were unsure if Marty gets a shot there. He would if we were playing 18 holes, but it was a sudden-death playoff that had only gone two holes. We played #3, I made a par and Marty bogeyed it. That was all we played because Marty was short on time.
 
Kierkegaard said that Marty gets a shot on #2 because we should restart as if we are playing another 18, but I don't see how that is fair. How can Marty get two of his four shots in a sudden-death playoff that only goes two or three holes? If Marty gets two shots in nine holes we should play the whole nine to decide, not just the two holes where he gets strokes.
 
That's just my opinion. I will accept whatever your decision is.
 



On another note, Marty and I were both disappointed with Roy's blow-up at Lawrence of Arabia that caused Lawrence of Arabia to resign and walk off the course on #17. Lawrence of Arabia had made a few minor mistakes with the rules, and Roy got mad each time, progressively worse until his blow-up:

    *
      On #12 Lawrence of Arabia teed-up a few inches in front of the markers. Rob Roy called him on it before he played the shot. Lawrence of Arabia apologized and properly re-teed. Rob Roy was agitated and commented that Lawrence of Arabia should know the rules.
    *
      On #13 Lawrence of Arabia healed his club in the hazard. Rob Roy again pointed it out before Lawrence of Arabia played the shot, but after the shot was played Rob Roy was increasingly agitated and complained about it.
    *
      On #16 Lawrence of Arabia putted first to about three feet past the hole. Lawrence of Arabia prepared to finish up, but Rob Roy objected that he was out, which he was. Lawrence of Arabia apologized and marked his ball. Roy was irritated that he had to tell Lawrence of Arabia that he was out. Rob Roy missed his 5' putt and then blew-up and blamed Lawrence of Arabia for making him miss the putt. Rob Roy was swearing at Lawrence of Arabia at that point and I think he assaulted him (I'm not a lawyer, but I know you don't have to touch someone to commit assault). We tried to talk him into continuing on the #17 tee, but in hindsight, Lawrence of Arabia was probably right to withdraw.

Match Play
A match that ends all square should be played off hole by hole until one side wins a hole. The playoff should start on the hole where the match began. In a handicap match, handicap strokes should be allowed as in the prescribed round.

If a Committee considers that a player is guilty of a serious breach of etiquette, it may impose a penalty of disqualification under this Rule.

Rick, please describe this assault.  You imply Liam Neeson didn't touch Peter the Tool but suggest assault was involved. 

I might change my opinion to jive with that of Clive but I think we need more details.

1-3/4 Failure of Players to Apply Known Penalty

Q. In a match, a player discovers at the 2nd hole that he has 15 clubs in his bag contrary to Rule 4-4a, but his opponent refuses to apply the penalty. The extra club is declared out of play and the match continues. The Committee disqualifies both players. Is this correct?

A. Yes. Since the players agreed to waive the penalty, they should be disqualified under Rule 1-3.

I was with you ... right up to the part where Lawrence walks off the course and forfeits.

 

Just laying the groundwork, I'll bet.
