If you go to a named golf course, and are only allowed to play it off a tee that is so far forwards it reduces the golf course to a nonsense, have you actually played the course?
As an example, in Portugal recently, I paid 140 odd euros to play Quinta Do Lago North, which has been the subject of a large rework. We were assigned the yellow tees. Ok, annoying, but not totally unexpected.
However, on many tee boxes, the yellow tee of the day was 80 yards nearer the hole than the yellow block the card is measured from, reducing many holes to a drive and chip.
Surely ifyou pay the fee, you should, within reason be allowed to choose your tees, to suit your game?
