Ball Played as It Once Lay or Ought to Have Lain

If a player's ball lands and comes to rest, however briefly, on the face of any slope, bank, or hill, and then, in a separate and distinct motion occurring after the completion of its forward movement, it rolls down the incline in a direction generally away from the green or toward or into a hazard or the rough, the ball may be lifted and replaced without penalty as near as possible to the point of its farthest advance.
