Since there were no OB markers the ball was in play if Greg wanted it to be. So he took his shot from the yard and over the trees and almost hit the green and went on to make a par save. The tv announcers made it quite clear that the ball was not OB. Granted most of the time we play for the fun of it or practice so I can't imagine anyone hitting from any private property even if not marked as OB.

Interesting story - but was the yard that Norman's ball landed in ACROSS THE STREET from the golf course? That was the whole gist of the OP's story was the golfer came across the street and HIT the ball back onto the course ACROSS the street!
