Rather than a "hate" of the execs, could all the reduced play on all courses together possibly be attributable more to this year's weather? I don't know of too many who like to play on courses with roped off holes due to excess water or 106-degree heat indices. This summer has been brutal! (Not any too safe or advisable for the aging population, meaning 60+, either.)

Nancy Lopez once remarked that she was glad that she didn't have to play Pelican on tour!
