    3. In match play, I hit first on last hole down middle of fairway. Opponent, hits their ball in woods and is using the 5 minutes to search for his ball. Oppenent tells me to go ahead and hit and if he does not find his ball by then, he will concede the hole. I hit my ball on green and about the same time my opponent hits his ball from the woods onto the green? Is there a rule violation and what is it?

      Sounds like he cheated, he should have informed you that he had found his ball, but you should also have checked the situation yourself, with the absence of a referee you can only put it down to "bad etiquette" no proof , no penalty I'm afraid.

        I agree with Romos...unless his ball knocked your ball of hit you- then I believe he could be penalized.
