Major Champion
So I played in what is a a sort of society today and I'm not naming where as I don't want to embarrass the organisers who were pretty faultless. Everyone playing were club members and had handicaps and we were at a course in Kent
Operation stack made getting there tough but we did arrive.
Sitting having a roll with my playing partners, one of the organisers (a 50 year old teaching pro) saw us, and walked 10 yards into the clubhouse, shook our hands and started to walk out, was accosted by a member and ordered to remove his cap.
One of my playing partners, regularly walked on everyone's putting lines, only raked a bunker on the 18th but went in several, took 4 practice swings before every shot, played out of turn regularly including putting, helecoptered his driver into the trees after a bad drive, insisted on holing out even if he couldn't score, invited a group through at a totally inappropriate time,
Because of the above, and my concern for etiquette, I was thoroughly pee'd off and angry and my game struggled. I couldn't say anything as I didn't want to upset my mate who was playing with us and is employed by the guy and I regularly play with.
Operation stack made getting home a nightmare and I wish, suffering with a summer cold too, that I'd not bothered to get out of bed this morning! And - yes, I know I should have spoken to him but sometimes you just can't!
