Read 27.2 It is abundantly clear. If a player thinks a ball may be lost, he may declare a provisional ball. He must hit the provisional before he, his partner or their caddies leave the hitting area to begin the search. By rule, a player may not search for a ball, then declare he's going back to the tee to hit a provisional. He must play the provisional before starting the search.
