The Trial Taker cannot touch the opponent's ball, nor can they use the club to touch the opponent's ball, but there is no rule saying their own ball cannot touch the opponent's ball.
But how could Shu Wei ever imagine that Li Xiu would use such a method?
Trying to hit his ball in mid-air is much harder than sinking the ball into the hole.
After all, the hole is stationary and cannot move, but his ball is flying rapidly in the air, and Li Xiu's tool is a club, not a gun. Almost simultaneously, the balls take flight; how could he predict the trajectory of his golf ball? It's simply impossible.
Moreover, Shu Wei did not anticipate that Li Xiu would use such a mutually destructive approach.
Yet, when he saw the two balls collide, his ball fell into the sea, while Li Xiu's ball, incredibly, changed direction to fly towards the platform where the hole was, his contorted face filled with disbelief.
"Impossible... impossible..."
Bang! Clang!
