📖 RULE DEFINITION: Holed
When a ball is at rest in the hole after a stroke and the entire ball is below the surface of the putting green.

When the Rules refer to “holing out ” or “hole out,” it means when the player’s ball is holed.

For the special case of a ball resting against the flagstick in the hole, see Rule 13.2c (ball is treated as holed if any part of the ball is below the surface of the putting green).

📖 Holed/2: Ball is Considered Holed Even Though It is Not "At Rest".
The words “at rest” in the definition of holed are used to make it clear that if a ball falls into the hole and bounces out, it is not holed.

However, if a player removes a ball from the hole that is still moving (such as circling or bouncing in the bottom of the hole), it is considered holed despite the ball not having come to rest in the hole.

📖 RULE 13.2c: Ball Resting Against Flagstick in Hole
If a player’s ball comes to rest against the flagstick left in the hole:

If any part of the ball is in the hole below the surface of the putting green, the ball is treated as holed even if the entire ball is not below the surface.

If no part of the ball is in the hole below the surface of the putting green:
-- The ball is not holed and must be played as it lies.
-- If the flagstick is removed and the ball moves (whether it falls into the hole or moves away from the hole), there is no penalty and the ball must be replaced on the lip of the hole (see Rule 14.2).

📖 RULE 14.2e: What to Do If Replaced Ball Does Not Stay on Original Spot
If the player tries to replace a ball but it does not stay on its original spot, the player must try a second time.

If the ball again does not stay on that spot, the player must replace the ball by placing it on the nearest spot where the ball will stay at rest, but with these limits depending on where the original spot is located:

-- The spot must not be nearer the hole.
-- Original Spot in General Area. The nearest spot must be in the general area.
-- Original Spot in Bunker or Penalty Area. The nearest spot must be either in the same bunker or in the same penalty area.
-- Original Spot on Putting Green. The nearest spot must be either on the putting green or in the general area.
