No , because it’s not allowed
to put a rake back in trap ( hazard ) only in grass around trap . Check it out .
The rakes at a PGA event are kept off to the side, out of play. The rake is given to the caddie when they approach the trap. TV golf staff ask that the rakes be placed in the trap so the staff mowing the grass don’t have to get off the mower to move rakes when mowing around the bunkers.
