  I am on the third hole at St. Andrews I hit the ball on my second shot it went across the green to the fringe and then it said my ball has been taken out of play? I am not in a tournement so I son't understand why this has happend and if I will get my ball back?

                     Thank you,

  I am going to guess here . After seeing that you have been here almost 4 years and have starter clubs, I bet that you were playing a special Gifted ball from WGT and it was not a Starter ball, Non starter balls have a life span / after so many hits they go away .

  Yep. With the exception of putts, ball durability decreases with each hit even in practice, stroke play, or CTTH rounds,

  In Practice mode, if you elect to take the Mulligan option ball durability decreases by 2 hits with each stroke - including putts.
