GRQOTW110:
Barney has correctly taking stroke and distance relief for a penalty of one stroke. He was allowed to change his mind on which option he was choosing, as he made the change before the ball was dropped. His actions to care for the course are allowed as per Rule 12.2b(3), because when Barney had intention to take relief outside the bunker, he was allowed to touch/smooth the sand, even if it was on his line of play, which in this case it was.
